I first did a buttermilk pie with a recipe from Emeril then my Mother said my Texan sister baked them all the time and gave me her recipe. Emeril's recipe didn't set up well and took longer than the recipe, it did taste good though, very rich. I just baked my sisters recipe and it looks good.
BUTTERMILK PIE
1 1/2 CUPS SUGAR
3 Tbs FLOUR
2 EGGS
1/2 CUP MELTED BUTTER
1 CUP BUTTERMILK
2 TSP VANILLA
1 pie shell homemade or bought
Combine sugar & flour, beat in eggs, add butter, and add buttermilk & vanilla. Pour into pie shell.
Bake @425 for 10 min, 350 for 35 min
I use a Pillsbury pie shell and baked @400 for 10 minutes, 350 for 35 minutes and looked good. Note I don't get fancy with the crust edge; call the a rustic buttermilk pie!
