Confession of March Pie


Yes, three months into my Year of Pies and I dropped the ball. March got away from me and I failed to deliver a March pie. However, I plan to make 2 pies in April to make up for it. I made the first one this weekend for Easter. This pie is crustless and almost custardy.

I was craving a Buttermilk Pie and found this from Paula Deen. This is a very easy pie and not too sweet.
