In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make her Best Buttermilk Pie. This is a version of the pie that I ordered when Rick and I had lunch at Holly Hill Inn in Midway, Kentucky. This is a traditional Southern pie that is very easy to make.

Ingredients:

one 9-inch unbaked pie crust
½ cup butter, melted and cooled
1 ¼ cups sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 eggs, well beaten
½ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
whipped topping and mint sprigs for garnish

In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs with an electric mixer until well-beaten. Set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, combine ½ cup melted butter (cooled), 1 ¼ cups sugar, and 3 tablespoons flour. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined. Transfer the butter-sugar mixture to the bowl containing the beaten eggs. Add ½ cup buttermilk and 1 tablespoon vanilla. Beat about 2 minutes until homogenous. Pour pie filling into unbaked 9-inch pie crust. Cover pie crust fluting with aluminum foil to protect it from burning. Bake at 350 (F) until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean. Remove from oven immediately and cool on wire rack. Serve at room temperature or chilled, topped with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprig of mint. This is delightful!!! I hope you enjoy this Best Buttermilk Pie! Love, Betty ♥♥♥♥♥

  • Betty, for the buttermilk can I use any vinegar? Like red wine vinegar

  • @idunnoproductionzz Yes, you may add any type of vinegar (or lemon juice) to the milk and substitute that in the place of buttermilk.

  • Hi Betty,how can I make buttermilk if I can't buy it? And how did you make that gorgeous edge for the pie crust? I have to do the same thing! I luv all your videos!

  • @rachellesim1013 Add one tablespoon of lemon juice to one cup of regular milk to use as one cup of buttermilk. You can find the technique of fluting the crust in my video called "Betty's Best Homemade Pie Crust."

  • I've been just going through all your videos again, and I must say, apart from your videos being perfectly amazing, that Rick has an incredibly smooth and steady hand with that camera! So professional, the both of you :)

  • @ilovethejokerr Thanks--from both of us!

    --Betty & Rick :)
