PINEAPPLE BUTTERMILK PIE

 

Ingredients

• 1 9-inch deep dish pie shell frozen or homemade
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• ¼ cup all purpose flour
• ¼ tsp baking soda
• ⅛ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
• 1 cup buttermilk
• ½ cup butter melted
• 3 large eggs
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 tsp lemon extract
• 1 8 oz can crushed pineapple well drained

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place pie crust on a baking sheet. Set aside.
• Sift together the sugar, flour, baking soda, salt and nutmeg.
• In a separate bowl using an electric mixer, beat together buttermilk, butter, eggs, vanilla and lemon extracts until smooth. Add to the sifted dry ingredients. Whip until smooth. Mix in drained pineapple by hand.
• Pour evenly into the pie shell and sprinkle the top with additional nutmeg.
• Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Check the edges of the pie around 40 minutes, and cover with aluminum foil or a pie crust shield, to prevent the edges from over browning.

I believe - What is coming is better than what has gone

Be grateful for what you have in the midst of getting what is for you.

Words of Wisdom

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

John Wooden

Your Remedy is within you, but you do not sense it.

Your Sickness is from you, but you do not perceive it.

You Presume you are a small entity,

But within you is enfolded the entire universe.

You are indeed the evident book,

By whose alphabet the hidden becomes the manifest.

Therefore, you have no need to look beyond yourself,

What you seek is within you, if only you reflect.

Ali ibn Abi Talib
