My uncle's neighbor Lola, in North Carolina, made this pie all the time. Lola told me it is a Southern staple. For such a simple pie it sure delivers great flavor and creaminess. I just love this pie and now it has become one of my Thanksgiving day pies and I always think of Lola when I make it.

Smooth, creamy, buttery rich pie with just a little tang. It actually resembles the filling in pecan pie.

How To Make lola's southern buttermilk pie

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2

Mix everything together besides nutmeg and pour into an unbaked 9 inch pie shell. Sprinkle the top lightly with nutmeg. Bake in 350 degree oven for 30-45 minutes. Cool to allow filling to set.
Step 3

This pie is wonderful because it is just something you don't see and taste everyday. Add a dollop of whipped cream to the top and you have one decadent dessert!
