Vintage, I posted a vinegar pie recipe LINK. It doesn't have milk in it. If you make a lot of pies or use a lot of pie crust, it's easy to make your own in a batch and freeze them. The pies will taste better than refrigerated pre-made crusts from the store.

Yes I saw that recipe. Looks like fun. I also posted our pie crust recipe that my mom always used.

Thanks!

So for Christmas I made the Lemon Chess pie with the recipe from my previous reply and it was amazing. The only change I made was adding NuCoa Margarine in place of butter. I have to say the O.P.'s pic of the Buttermilk pie was a bit more appealing, but it was a good hit on Christmas Eve and I am sure Jesus would have loved some on his birthday!

Not much left there!

Must have been a big hit with your family! :C

It's all your fault: I'm drooling here on my keyboard:c

I am seriously intrigued by: Vinegar Pie, Chess Pie and Buttermilk Pie. And I'm planning to try and whip one up somehow. Here is a recipe for Lemon Chess Pie. This one could easily be made non dairy by using dairy free margarine.


Ingredients:
• 1 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon finely ground cornmeal
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 4 large eggs
• 1 8- or 9-inch pie crust (not deep dish)

Method:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a blender, pulse sugar and cornmeal together until combined. Add butter to the blender, along with lemon juice, vanilla and salt; blend until incorporated. Add eggs, one at a time, blending until very smooth. Pour batter into crust and bake until the pie is just set in the middle, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack before serving.

So isn't that also called Chess Pie? I need to come with dairy free version of this. My son is deathly allergic(not lactose intolerant, deathly allergic) to dairy. We've come up with many work arounds for many deserts with dairy in them. This one could be tough though. The big part of the flavor is gonna be from the buttermilk

There's a difference: Classic Chess Pie uses evaporated milk and a lot more eggs. Now there is also a Buttermilk Chess pie that uses buttermilk in the place of evaporated milk but it still uses a lot more eggs making it richer. Both are rich, decadent and definitely not for those with milk allergies.

I've never heard of it but it does look to be real tasty.
We are making four pies this weekend, for my Northern friends that are coming down.

Thought I'd give them all a taste of the South! :c

I've been eating buttermilk pie all my life. One of my kids' favorites.

Thanks for the tip! :C

Adding that to the top struck me as odd because nutmeg has a pretty bitter taste.

That looks good, even I could make it and I don't bake.
