Strawberry- Lemon Buttermilk Pie

Yield: 1 (9-inch) pie

Prep Time: 25 min + chill time

Cook Time: 45 min

A nice light tasting pie. Love the lemon flavor and the limey-strawberry topping.

Ingredients:

FILLING:
1 1/2 cups granulated white sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1 Tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
minced zest and juice of 1 lemon
pinch of salt

SHELL:
1 (9-inch) unbaked pie shell

TOPPING:
1/4 cup honey
juice of 1 lime
2 pints strawberries, hulled and halved
whipped cream

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Prepare filling: Whisk all ingredients together in a large bowl until blended. Pour into pie shell and place on a baking sheet. Bake until filling is just set, yet still a bit jiggly, 40-50 minutes. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature; chill if not serving right away. (Let chilled pie stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.)

3. Prepare topping: In a small pan, heat honey and lime juice until melted. Pour over berries in a medium bowl and let stand at least 5 minutes. Just before serving, arrange on pie with a slotted spoon. Top individual servings with whipped cream.

Tips:

*Don't top the pie until just before serving or the filling might collapse. You could serve the berries on the side also.
