A creamy, nostalgic dessert that balances flavors of butter, vanilla, and buttermilk—a slice of heaven from family traditions.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3–4 tablespoons ice water
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt for the crust. Cut in the chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  4. On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough until it fits a 9-inch pie pan. Place the crust in the pan and trim the edges.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, nutmeg, and salt until smooth.
  6. Carefully pour the filling into the prepared crust.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set.
  8. Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
