3/4 cup water 
1/8 teaspoon salt 
1/4 cup quick-cooking grits 
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter 
3/4 cups sugar 
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 
3 large eggs, slightly beaten 
1/4 cup buttermilk 
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
1 (9-inch) frozen pie shell, thawed 
Sweetened whipped cream and strawberries, optional
==Directions==
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. 
In a small saucepan, bring the water and salt to a
boil. Add the grits and cook for 4 minutes, stirring
constantly. Add the butter and cook for 1 additional
minute. Set aside and cool slightly.
In a small bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, eggs,

grits. Pour into the pie shell and bake for 35 to 40
minutes, or until set. Serve warm or cold with whipped
cream and strawberries as a garnish, if desired.
