Notes
Making Jeff Ruby Butter Pie is easy if you follow these tips.
- Use cold butter for the crust: Cold butter makes the crust light and crispy. Cut the butter into small pieces and keep it cold until you use it.
- Let the pie cool before you serve it: After baking, let the pie cool. This will help the filling set, making it easy to cut.
- Don’t overbake the pie: Bake until the filling is just set. If you bake it too long, the filling may get dry.
- Add a little salt: A small pinch of salt in the filling will make the butter taste stronger.
- Serve it warm: The pie tastes best when warm. You can heat it in the oven before serving.
