Buttermilk Pie

Buttermilk Pie is one of my favorite southern desserts. It is a simple pie with an ultra-sweet filling that has a little tang from the buttermilk. The addition of the blackberries adds some tartness and additional flavor.

Pie Crust

You can use either a homemade pie crust or a refrigerated pie crust for this recipe. You want it to be unbaked. A frozen pie crust can be used as well. Let it sit on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes before filling it.

How To Tell If The Pie Is Done

The pie should take about 50 to 60 minutes to fully cook. There should still be some jiggle in the middle when you shake it but it should mostly be set. It will further set up as it chills.

Blackberry Buttermilk Pie Recipe Tips

Place the pie pan on a baking sheet before placing it in the oven. Then you don’t have to worry about spilling the filling or the filling overflowing.

If the pie crust burns too quickly, put a pie shield on it or loosely wrap aluminum foil around the edges of the crust.

Notes

You want to use an unbaked pie crust for this recipe. Either make a homemade one using this recipe or use a refrigerated pie crust from the store. Place it in a 9-inch pie pan, trim any overhang, and crimp the edges.

If crust starts to get too brown before the filling is set, use a pie shield.
