Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1 9-inch pie crust

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place a rack in the center of the oven.

Step 2

Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat, then set it aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and all-purpose flour until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs to the sugar-flour mixture, one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition to ensure a smooth consistency.

Step 5

Gradually stir in the melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and salt. Mix until the filling is fully combined and smooth.

Step 6

Roll out your 9-inch pie crust and fit it into a pie plate. Trim any overhanging edges and crimp the edges decoratively if desired.

Step 7

Pour the prepared buttermilk filling into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula if necessary.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pie to the preheated oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. The center should jiggle slightly but not be liquid.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack. This will help the filling set further.

Step 10

Slice and serve at room temperature or chilled. Enjoy your Good Ol Buttermilk Pie!
