INGREDIENTS

  • Cooking Time: 35-45
  • 2 sticks sweet Butter
  • 1c granulated Sugar
  • 1/2c Brown Sugar
  • 1/2c Black Molasses
  • 6x-lg or 8med Egg Yolks
  • 1/2c Buttermilk (or Cream)
  • 3tblsp Cornmeal
  • 2-8" Arrowhead Mills Graham pie crusts (or 1-9" deep-dish, any type)

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven 350F.


Cream butter and sugar.


Add yolks while beating until fluffy with hand mixer.


Add milk, then cornmeal, mixing until blended.


Pour into crusts; bake 35-45min, until very brown. Pie does initially rise, and can overflow especially in the 9" pie (so you may want to put a cookie sheet on rack below), but will deflate upon cooling.


Allow to cool before serving for a firm pie. Serve garnished with whipped cream and crushed pecans if you like.
