Real Southern Peanut Butter Pie image

This peanut butter pie is the real deal. No pudding or freezing. Any true Southerner knows a real peanut butter pie when they taste it and this is it. This recipe was passed on to me by a chef at a famous inn here in Virginia that served up some of the best pies in the state.

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ cup confectioners' sugar
⅓ cup peanut butter

2 cups milk
½ cup white sugar
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
2 egg yolks, beaten
⅛ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons butter

Steps:

  • Stir confectioners' sugar and peanut butter together in a bowl until crumbly. Remove 2 tablespoons peanut butter mixture to a small bowl and reserve as a garnish. Spread remaining peanut butter mixture into the bottom of the pie crust.
