Maple Syrup Pie

Maple Syrup Pie is a delightful dessert that celebrates the rich, sweet flavor of maple syrup. With a creamy filling made from maple syrup, eggs, and cream, encased in a flaky pie crust, it's a decadent treat perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

• 1 9-inch unbaked pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 cup pure maple syrup
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the unbaked pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish, crimping the edges as desired.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, eggs, heavy cream, granulated sugar, flour, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
3. Pour the maple syrup mixture into the prepared pie crust.
4. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any potential spills, and transfer it to the preheated oven.
5. Bake the pie for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. You can check for doneness by gently jiggling the pie - the center should be slightly firm.
6. Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
7. Slice and serve the Maple Syrup Pie on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
