Hester's Buttermilk Pie
Hester's Buttermilk Pie Recipe
This recipe comes from my Mom's little red and white cookbook. I couldn't tell you who Hester is but I can guess it is from my Dad's side of the family. In all my life I have never heard such funny names as the ones that are related to my Dad's side of the family. My Dad being born and raised in the south makes him a real southern boy at heart. He has lived most of his adult life here in Michigan but his roots always bring him home. I remember as a kid hearing some of the names his relatives had just gave me a chuckle. Here is a sampling of some of the funny names, Ronell, and of course his wife Ruby, or how about Lurton or Della Jane. This is just the ones I can remember and I know this is just the tip of the iceberg.
This pie is very rich and sweet and eating one slice could put you into a sugar high for a week but it is delicious. In my mom's cookbook she has two buttermilk pie recipes that I will be printing. They are totally two different recipes the only thing the same is the content of buttermilk and the name.
