Ingredients
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pie crust (see above), fitted into a 9-inch pie plate, well chilled
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Preparation
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, flour, and sugar. Whisk in buttermilk and butter in 4 parts, alternating between the two. Whisk in vanilla. Pour filling into crust; sprinkle with nutmeg. Bake 15 minutes.
Reduce heat to 325 degrees. Cover pie loosely with foil. Bake until filling is set, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool. Serve at room temperature.
