Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare the pie crust in a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan.
  2. In a skillet, cook the sliced apples with ¼ cup of sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg over medium heat for about 10 minutes until tender.
  3. For the custard, whisk the remaining ¾ cup sugar with flour and salt, then add eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour the custard mixture over the cooked apples in the crust.
  5. Bake at 325°F for 30 minutes to set the custard base.
