Yesterday I found myself hankering for something sweet but not over the top; somewhat easily assembled but not too involved. Plus, I wanted to use up my buttermilk. Hence, I found a recipe from Everyday Finesse for this crustless buttermilk pie, which I never knew existed. It was quite delicious. Tart yet sweet; smooth and custardy. It reminded me of a lemon tart. Anyway, this was one of the better ways I’ve found to use up leftover buttermilk. Definitely recommended.
Crustless Buttermilk Pie adapted from Everyday Finesse
3 eggs
1-1/4 c. sugar
1-1/2 c. buttermilk
1/3 c. plain flour
1 tbsp. butter, melted
1 tsp. vanilla
Dash of salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Break eggs into bowl or 6-cup liquid measuring cup. Mix in the rest of the ingredients. Grease a glass pie plate with butter or Pam. Either fill greased pie plate with the pie mixture and place into the oven on a center rack, or to avoid spills, pull out the center rack of the preheated oven with an oven mitt and place pie plate on the rack. Then pour the pie mixture into the pie plate and carefully push the rack back into the oven. Be sure to do this carefully so as not to touch the hot oven. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.

Looks and sounds great! And we can always use more ways to use up buttermilk. I’m intrigued that it’s like lemon tart – seriously love that!

Very interesting tart! And it probably lends itself to a few variations too, like fruit inside.
Jun 12, 2013 @ 05:19:15
I love that it is crustless! It looks very good…..and I do have buttermilk that needs to get used! Hmm!!
Jun 12, 2013 @ 05:52:46
I love crustless pies, so much less bother and equally delicious and just the thing to use up some pesky leftover buttermilk.
Jun 12, 2013 @ 06:42:00
That looks delicious! I always have left over buttermilk, what a great recipe.
Jun 12, 2013 @ 06:45:50
I am going to have to share this one with my dad. He always makes a crustless pumpkin pie – I am sure this would be right up his alley 🙂
Jun 12, 2013 @ 06:49:19
I’ve had buttermilk tart but always with a crust. I am really craving it without the crust.
Jun 12, 2013 @ 07:13:08
Oh I love that this is crustless, I have some leftover buttermilk, will give this a try, it looks delicious!
Jun 12, 2013 @ 07:17:57
Love that there is no crust! Oh i can taste the creaminess and tang of that buttermilk! Melts in my mouth
Jun 12, 2013 @ 07:46:48
Yum yum yum, this certainly looks like my kind of pie.
Jun 12, 2013 @ 08:21:26

Oh this looks so wonderful! Occasionally I, too, have leftover buttermilk and just don’t know what to do with it! This is quite a nice thought. 🙂

Looks fabulous:) I am a big fan of Chess Pie:)

This is one pie I’ve never tasted…it reminds me a bit of a sugar cream pie (which I’ve never eaten, either) which is a Hoosier specialty. I need to give this a try…I have a feeling the family would love it.
Jun 12, 2013 @ 14:17:21
I just want to visit you ! I’d so love to taste what you cook !
Jun 12, 2013 @ 14:37:42

Love a crustless pie. Smooth and custardy, my kind of pie.

What a great way to use up the buttermilk that I invariably have left over after using some in a recipe. This looks great! 🙂
Jun 12, 2013 @ 22:19:21
What a nice pie! And easy to make too! I have never tried a crustless pie before!

This kind of reminds me of crack pie a little but BETTER!!
Jun 13, 2013 @ 12:49:22
Very smooth and looks delicious!! I really love buttermilk in sweets!
Jun 13, 2013 @ 15:21:14
This looks sooo good! It’s nice because it has a lot of household items in it so you can just easily whip up a batch whenever you feel like it (me tonight now that I’m craving this stuff hahah).
Hugs & Kisses,

This looks a little like Nigella’s gateau breton- though I know the techniques and ingredients are quite different. Looks like your teeth would sink right into it! Yummy!!
