A sweet and creamy classic southern dessert. Buttermilk, coconut, and a hint of vanilla create a delicious custard-like filling for this pie.

ready in: 1-2 hrs
ingredients
1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled 2 cups sugar 3/4 cup buttermilk 1 cup flaked coconut 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 pinch salt 5 eggs 1 deep dish pie crust, unbaked
directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine the melted butter, sugar, buttermilk, coconut, vanilla, and salt in a mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes.
With the mixer running, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Pour the filling into the pie crust. Place the pie in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 50-60 minutes or until done.
Remove the pie from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
