    Buttermilk pie is a staple on Amish farms and kitchens and for good reason.  The ingredients for this easy buttermilk pie are readily available and, most important, it makes a darn good pie.  Man, right now, just thinking about a cool, custard, buttermilk pie topped with whipped cream...wow, it's enough to make me want to make one now. And if I were to make one now I'd make this Best Buttermilk Pie.

    Buttermilk, on Amish farms, is a great way to use up past-its-prime milk.  So if you are visiting an Amish home, expect to find buttermilk in almost all baked goods.  All classics.  I love buttermilk cookies, but the pie is amazing also.

    This pie was made by my long-time friend and friend of Amish365, Carmon Hacker. She's an amazing prize-winning baker and cook and I'm thrilled to be able to share this with you today.

    Carmon's husband is now a convert, declaring this his new favorite pie and Carmon says it is "simple and delicious." 

    Here is buttermilk pie, the strawberries are a nice touch.

    Sliced strawberries are a spring staple on Amish farms and they really do pair well with this pie. What I like about this recipe too is how economical it is. With soaring high food prices, this Best Buttermilk Pie is one you can make on a budget!

    Looks so good, Carmon adds a hint of pumpkin pie spice to it, which adds some extra zip.  This is another buttermilk pie recipe from an Amish kitchen, I made this one, but Carmon's looks a lot better!
    Use a flavorful crust

    You can use any crust recipe with this, but my favorite - and the easiest - is this Amish crust that you make in the pie pan, no rolling and it is super good. This is my go-to crust recipe.

    You will be amazed with this pie!
