Bourbon Buttermilk Pie
Ingredients
- 9 inch pie crust
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 c sugar
- 3 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 c buttermilk
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 tablespoon bourbon
- 3 tablespoon butter, melted
- nutmeg, grated
Instructions
Serving Size: 6. Bake the well pricked pie shell in a 400 degree oven for just 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. In a mixer bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the flour and beat again. With the beater running slowly, pour in the buttermilk. Add the vanilla, bourbon, and melted butter; blend. Pour the filling into the partially baked pie shell and dust the surface with nutmeg. Bake until the filling just sets, about 20 minutes, then turn off the oven and leave the pie in for 10 minutes longer. Remove the pie to a rack; it will continue to set as it cools (Custard pies should not bake too long or the custard will curdle).
