You've Just Got to Try Buttermilk Pie!

I know what you are thinking... ahh what, that ahh, doesn't sound so good. Trust me this is really yummy stuff. It's often referred to as poor man's cheesecake. If you do try it leave a comment and let me know what you think!

Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
4 tablespoons flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 stick butter, melted
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Place beaten eggs in a medium bowl. Gradually beat in sugar. Stir in melted butter, salt, flour, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth. Pour mixture into an unbaked pie crust. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour until filling is set. After pie cools refrigerate!

Can be served with a fruit topping and whipped cream much like cheesecake but it's just as great plain.

Have you heard of xylitol? It is a natural sugar substitute that tastes better than any other substitute I've tasted and is healthier than the others. I use it in all my baking since I cannot have sugar and no one notices the difference.
