RECIPES FOR PIES
OLD-FASHIONED CRUMB PIE
Take 3/4 cup of butter, 1 cup of sugar; mix sugar and butter and sufficient flour to crumb nicely; after it is crumbed by rubbing together with the hands, take about 1/3 of the crumbs, mix the remainder with a cup of buttermilk and 1 teaspoonful of soda, flavor with vanilla or lemon; mix to the consistency of a thin cake dough or a thick batter: have a lower crust prepared in 2 pie plates, put 1/2 of the dough into each plate and sprinkle the remaining crumbs on top; bake in a quick oven.
