1/8 tsp cinnamon

* Stir in sugar and eggs.

* Add buttermilk, vanilla and spices. Combine well.

* Pour into crusts, bake for about 1 hour.

 

Note, protect the edge of the crust with foil for first 30 minutes or so. You want to slow bake, because too fast and the filling will crack. Use the toothpick test to check doneness.
