Old Southern Buttermilk Pie

By Joelene

Ingredients

• 3 eggs (well beaten)
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup shredded coconut
• 6 tablespoons buttermilk
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 9-inch unbaked pie shell

Preparation

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, add all ingredients and blend well. (Don’t worry if mixture looks slightly curdled.) Pour into unbaked pie shell and bake at 325 for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Top should be browned and may crack on top. (Testing with toothpick will not work since center may be soft and may jiggle slightly when done.) Allow pie to set up for about 30 minutes before serving.
