Butttermilk Pie

Also called Magnolia Pie

Pre-heat oven to 325

2 cups sugar
1 stick butter, room temperature
4 tablespoons flour
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell

Beat eggs (slightly). Add butter, sugar, buttermilk, and vanilla (my method is to run the mixer and slide the ingredients in). Add flour last.

Pour into unbaked 9 inch pie shell and bake for 1 hour at 325 degrees or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.

Allow to cool.

This recipe calls for a 9 inch pie crust, which is generally difficult to find. If you make this recipe and put it into an 8 inch pie crust, you will have batter leftover. I like to buy three pre-made graham cracker crusts at the grocery store. If you double the recipe, you can make exactly three 8 inch pies! Tah-dah! Share the two extra pies with your co-workers, and they'll hate you less ;)
