Classic Amish Buttermilk Pie

Unlock the secret to this creamy, dreamy Amish buttermilk pie—it’s simpler than you think and packs a tangy-sweet punch that’ll have everyone begging for seconds.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar (for that perfect sweetness)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (cooled slightly)
- 3 large eggs (room temperature blends better)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (sifted to avoid lumps)
- 1 cup buttermilk (full-fat for richness)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (pure for best flavor)
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C)—no guessing, use an oven thermometer.

- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure a silky texture.

- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Tip: Shield the crust edges with foil if they brown too quickly.
