Holley Buttermilk Pie

Holley Pie aka Buttermilk Pie

• 2 1/4 c. sugar
• 1 1/2 sticks butter
• 4 eggs
• 3 Tbsp. Flour
• 3/4 c. buttermilk
• 1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla
• 1/2 tsp. Coconut extract
• 2 9” pie shells

Preheat oven to 400 (cooking temp is 350, *see note below).

Cream butter and sugar thoroughly.
Add flour and eggs, mix well.
Add vanilla, buttermilk, and coconut extract, mix well.

Pour into pie shells.

Set oven to 350. Bake 1 hour, until pie doesn’t shake.

NOTES:

Depending on your oven, altitude, etc. you may wish to cover the edges with a pie shield (or aluminum foil) until the last few minutes to prevent them getting too dark.

Other extracts may be used in place of coconut. But it doesn’t taste like coconut anyway, and everyone seems to like it best.

*Heating the over to 400 allows it to stay at an even 350, even with the heat loss when you open the door to put the pies in! 🙂
