Site Review-My Wooden Spoon
Readers of MomCooks, I’d like you to meet Lori, from My Wooden Spoon. Lori is the mother of three, lives in the middle of nowhere, and used to cook on a ranch for twenty cowboys at a time. Seriously! She is my kind of cook-no fancy ingredients, no gourmet cooking techniques, just easy, filling food that kids will like-just like my cooking!
Lori asked me to check out her blog, so I did, and I have to say, I like it! Her theme uses warm browns and has a cute custom banner, it’s easy to navigate, and her recipes are well-organized. She must be doing something right, she has 360 Feed subscribers!
My Wooden Spoon also does cooking-related contests and giveaways, and she posts Tuesday’s Tips with a cooking tip. Lots of great practical advice! Here’s a recipe from My Wooden Spoon for something I have never had before but it sure sounds good-Buttermilk Pie.
INGREDIENTS:
* 1 refrigerated pie dough for single crust
* 1 cup sugar
* 2 1/2 tablespoons flour
* 2 eggs
* 1 3/4 cup buttermilk
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350′. Pierce pie crust with a fork all over, and prebake for 5 minutes. Whisk remaining ingredients together and pour into pie crust; bake 50-60 minutes and till browned. You need to let it sit, cool, and settle before eating:) It’s hard to wait, I know!
TIP: You can add a touch of butter and/or vanilla for a richer pie.
It sounds delicious, and it looks REALLY delicious! Thanks so much, Lori!
Thanks for the review Elizabeth! Make sure you need let that pie sit and firm up before you eat it. It’s sorta like pumkin pie..it needs to firm up!!
Thanks again:)
Sorry..I can’t type worth a darn today!
I am a fan of MomCooks..for her delicious food.
I’ve never had it or anything buttermilk flavored before (except pancakes), so I’m guessing it doesn’t have a very strong or distinct taste. I’m surprised it takes an hour to bake, seems like it’d be quicker.

Actually JBourne, it may even take longer depending on your oven;)
It’s worth it though. And no, you don’t know it’s buttermilk!
I’ve never heard of buttermilk pie but that sure looks good. At first glance I thought it was cassava cake.
My Wooden Spoon is a great blog! I have tried several of the recipes she has posted and they have turned out great.
buttermilk is like a tastier version of milk. generally you can sub it for milk or cream in recipes. not sure if it is better or worse for you??
