I really don’t think you can subsitute for real buttermilk in this recipe. The buttermilk is what gives the pie tangy flavor and creamy consistency.

I have never had buttermilk pie. Can I use regular milk with lemon juice as a substitute for the buttermilk?

Perre, I LOVE buttermilk pie! And I agree with your pie sentiments; I make many more pies in the summer than at other times of year, save Thanksgiving. I like to bring buttermilk pie to a 2-pie event as a compliment to a fruit pie. The buttermilk pie recipe I use is from that famous Southern cook, Martha Stewart (ha!) and has a lemony element, but I’ll try yours next time.

My grandmother used to make this scrumptious treat regularly, and I haven’t thought of it for years. Thanks so much for sharing your lovely recipe and reminding me that I need to make it pronto.

This pie is so simple I’ll bet even I could make it! I’m imagining it will be like a cheesecake pie, but lighter. Can’t wait!

Beautiful and clearly delicious. Even the name makes me happy. Local dairy offers old-timey buttermilk in glass milk bottles. I’m gonna have me a buttermilk-centric week, thanks to Runaway Spoon.

Can’t wait to make this! My grandmother used to make this for us when we were young. I had forgotten about it. Thanks PC!

I have heard of this pie but have never had it. This may be my chance!
