Maple Sugar Cream Pie is a delectable dish with a rich and distinct maple syrup flavor. It is a typical Canadian delicacy that is especially popular in Quebec. The pie has a buttery pie crust and a creamy, custard-like filling made with maple syrup and other ingredients.
The following is a basic recipe for Maple Sugar Cream Pie:
1 9-inch pie crust (prepared or homemade) – 1 cup pure maple syrup – 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar – 1/4 cup all-purpose flour – 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence – Whipped cream (optional) for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
- Roll out the pie dough and line a 9-inch pie dish with it. Trim and crimp the edges decoratively. Place aside.
- Whisk together the maple syrup, heavy cream, granulated sugar, flour, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract in a medium-sized mixing basin until well blended.
- Spoon the filling into the pie shell.
- Transfer the pie to a baking sheet and place it in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling has set and the crust has browned. Shake the pie gently to check for doneness; it should wobble slightly in the center but be mostly set.
- Remove the pie from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool entirely.
- Once the pie has cooled, place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight to properly set.
- Serve chilled, decorated with whipped cream if desired.
