Buttermilk Pie

I am a traditional fruit pie kinda girl usually, but Magelby's in Provo makes the best Buttermilk Pie I have ever tasted, which has made me think that other types of Pie may be acceptable as well. Here is a recipe I found online that is the closest I can find to Magelby's Buttermilk pie.

Buttermilk Pie
From Robert Stehling via the New York Times

Ingredients

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs, separated
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon lemon juice, more to taste
½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1 8-inch deep-dish pie crust, blind-baked until very lightly browned.

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees.
In an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, combine butter and sugar until well blended.
Add egg yolks and mix well. Add flour, lemon juice, nutmeg and salt.
Add buttermilk in a thin stream until blended. Set aside.
In another bowl, whisk egg whites until they form soft peaks. Pour about ¼ cup buttermilk mixture into egg whites and fold gently by hand to combine.
Pour egg white mixture into buttermilk mixture and fold gently until just combined. Mixture will be somewhat lumpy.
Pour filling into baked pie shell. Bake in middle of oven until filling is lightly browned and barely moves when pie is jiggled, 45 to 50 minutes. If you have added more than one tablespoon of lemon juice, it may take longer for pie to brown, so bake 5 to 10 minutes longer, if desired. If edge of crust browns too quickly, cover with foil. Cool on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers.
Serves 6-8.
