Greek Yogurt Pie

It was pouring down rain and very cold when Leonard decided that he wanted a chess or buttermilk pie. I always try to bake what he wants but I was completely out of milk or any powdered milk product, but I had some yogurt so why not I thought. Using that yogurt would be better than driving fifteen miles to the store for buttermilk in the cold rain. Thus my yogurt pie was developed and it is delicious!

  1. Isn't Greek yogurt wonderful?? I love eating it with honey and never would have thought to put it in a pie. I can imagine how yummy it is and I love fresh grated nutmeg. I used some in a white sauce last night. Hope you're enjoying your weekend Miz Helen!
