Buttermilk Pie is an old fashioned southern style custard pie with a lightly brown, crispy-sugary topping.
When Simply Suppers first arrived on my doorstep, I did what I usually do when I get my hands on a new cookbook. I do a quick glance and flip through the pages, so this time was no different. As I was thumbing through the cookbook and I booked marked a few of my favorites. This Buttermilk Pie was at the top of my to bake list.
The photo's alone looked so delicious that, I knew immediately that this was a cookbook that I was going to love. The title says its all Simply Suppers "Easy Comfort Food your Whole Family will Love.
The recipes in this cookbook are all comfort food recipes that remind you of home. I love simple southern pies and you can't get any simpler than a buttermilk pie, so I couldn't wait to make it! A good buttermilk pie should be firm on the inside and lightly brown and crispy on the top.
This recipe is simple to make and calls for simple ingredients. You can use store-bought pie crust or use a homemade pie crust recipe. It's all up to you. I hope y'all will give this recipe because I just know your going to love it.

I keep a canister of powdered buttermilk in my pantry just in case I don't have any buttermilk on hand or stored in the freezer. You can use cultured buttermilk blend whenever your recipe calls for liquid buttermilk or sour milk. 4 tablespoon powdered buttermilk to 1 cup water = 1 cup buttermilk.

I have two very favorite comfort foods and many other just plain favorites. The first is my homemade Potato Soup for which there is no recipe because I change it up a little bit every time depending on what is in the fridge. The second is Riviera (Las Vegas) Rice Pudding. The recipe for this was given on an old Phil Donahue Show and was made by a chef at the Riviera in Las Vegas. It is so wonderfully smooth and creamy and just lightly sweetened. I don't cook much now because I have been quite ill. I subscribe to your blog so that I can print your great recipes for my daughter in hopes that she will make them for me. She loves your recipe for the Quick and Easy Pancake Mix and uses it daily. Personally, I agree with you that I, too, enjoy the recipe for The Perfect Pancake. Ummmm, so delicious. I also enjoy your Easy Peasy Chicken Legs. Thanks for the wonderful cook you are and for sharing your recipes with us.
My favorite is homemade Chicken Noodle Soup! It just warms me through and brighten's my day.
