Strawberry Lemon Buttermilk Pie
A lovely lemon buttermilk pie with plenty of fresh strawberries.
Servings: 8 servings
Equipment
- 9-inch pie plate
Ingredients
FILLING:
- 1½ cups granulated white sugar
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 medium lemon, juiced and zested
- pinch of salt
SHELLL:
- One 9-inch unbaked pie shell
TOPPING:
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 medium lime, juiced
- 2 pints strawberries, hulled and halved
- whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
PREPARE THE FILLING:
- Whisk all of the ingredients together in a large bowl until blended. Pour the filling into the pie shell and place on a baking sheet. Bake until the filling is just set, yet still a bit jiggly, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature; chill if not serving right away. (Let the chilled pie stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.)
PREPARE THE TOPPING:
- In a small pan, heat the honey with the lime juice until melted. Pour over the berries in a medium bowl and let stand at least 5 minutes. Just before serving, arrange the berries on the pie with a slotted spoon. Top individual servings with whipped cream.
Notes
- *Don't top the pie until just before serving or the filling might collapse. You could serve the berries on the side also.
