LEMON BUTTERMILK PIE WITH SAFFRON

Steps:

• For buttermilk pie dough:
• Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining.
• Transfer to a large bowl and add buttermilk. Mix with a fork, adding more buttermilk by the tablespoon if needed, just until a shaggy dough comes together; knead very lightly until no dry spots remain. Pat into a disk and wrap in plastic. Chill at least 4 hours.
• DO AHEAD: Dough can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.
• For filling and assembly:
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Roll out pie dough on a lightly floured surface to a 14" round. Transfer to a 9" pie dish, allowing dough to slump down into dish. Trim dough, leaving about 1" overhang. Fold overhang under and crimp edge. Prick bottom all over with a fork. Freeze 15 minutes.
• Line crust with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang, and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Place pie dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is dry around the edge, 20-25 minutes. Remove parchment and weights; bake until surface looks dry, 10-12 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, blend egg yolks, eggs, buttermilk, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and saffron in a blender until smooth. With motor running, add 2 tablespoons flour, then butter. Tap blender jar against countertop to burst any air bubbles in filling and pour into warm crust.
• Bake pie, rotating halfway through and covering edges with foil if they brown too much before filling is done, until filling is set around edge but center jiggles slightly, 55-65 minutes. Transfer pie dish to a wire rack and let pie cool. Serve pie with whipped cream.
• DO AHEAD: Pie can be baked 2 days ahead. Keep at room temperature up to 6 hours; cover and chill to hold longer.
