I've tried several of the buttermilk pie recipes and this was the best! I followed the ingredients exactly and extended the baking time (slightly). This recipe is rich & sweet. If that's not your type of pie, this isn't your recipe. As is, it is not "eggy" as some of the other recipes I had made. My household loves pie - & several mentioned that the flavor is slightly reminiscent of creme brulee'. I served this the first night, slightly warm topped with a dollop of homemade whipped cream which was not too sweet. Lovely! Thank you for an excellent recipe.

Perfect the way it is!! I love that it only calls for 3 eggs. It's the best buttermilk pie I have had to date. I can see adding the zest of an orange or a lemon, coconut, perhaps a liquer, but for now I LOVE it the way it is!! PS Super simple too. I prefer to make my own pie crust. Be sure and prebake your crust 8-10 minutes before you pour filling in...it makes for a flakier crust on bottom. I hate a soggy crust.

Excellent!!! It is the smoothest custard pie I have ever made; no lumps, bumps nor air holes. I used powdered buttermilk and just rehydrated it with the amount of water called for on the box. I will definitely make this again.

I just made this pie, and OH MY GOSH, it was delicious! I used a graham cracker crust, and added 4 eggs because my 4 year old cracked the eggs for me, and a fair amount of the whites ended up on the counter. I made a blueberry sauce for the top, and I'm confident there will be no left-overs.

I used an extra egg as some other reviews suggested and it set wonderfully. The pie had a wonderful texture. But I did not like the way it tasted.

I made this pie for Thanksgiving, this being the first yr my Mother passed the spatula to me, lol. It baked up so pretty that I took it to my parents, and after "sampling", the whole pie was gone! I baked a second, to make sure it was not a fluke, and ended up hiding it in my bedroom so no one else could eat it!!! This pie is fabulous!!! I added the zest from one orange to the batter, and that just took it over the top!! You gotta try this!!

I was searching for a recipe to use the buttermilk I had left over from another recipe. This turned out pretty good. I took it to Thanksgiving Dinner and everyone questioned the name, but loved it after they tried it. First bite is questionable, but it goes quick after that!

I was looking for a recipe like this to use up 2 cups of buttermilk. I wanted a simple recipe without too much butter and no need for a mixer. This pie is delicious. Hubby & son (both very picky) enjoyed it. I used a 9" frozen deep dish pie crust, and had just a little extra filling left, so I baked it separately in a small ramekin, and it was delicious, too. I also added an extra egg since I had only lowfat buttermilk, and it set up perfectly. Next time I would take it out of the oven when there is a small center of custard that still "jiggles", as it will firm up while cooling. I am also planning to try it with lemon peel and juice, and once with coconut. The flavor of the custard is wonderful. We preferred it after it had chilled it in the fridge. My first buttermilk pie experience, and I will make it regularly. Thanks for a great recipe!

very easy, quick and good result: difficult to say what's really in it. also a good way to use up buttermilk or else: I tried also with a peach yogurth container, and it came out pretty well indeed.

A great pie. I told my husband he had to guess what was in it, and he couldn't figure it out. I have never tried buttermilk pie before, but I guarantee I'll be making it again. It did take almost an hour to bake. At 35 minutes it hadn't even begun to set. A small problem, considering the final result.
