Equipment

  • 9-inch pie plate
  • heavy saucepan
  • mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

  • 1 single pie crust
  • 1 1/2 cups pure maple syrup
  • 6 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tbsp unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, bring the maple syrup to a gentle boil and cook for 5 minutes, reducing the heat if necessary.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the butter until melted, then stir in the heavy whipping cream.
  • Transfer about 1/2 cup of the maple mixture to a small bowl. Whisk in the flour and salt until smooth, then whisk the mixture back into the saucepan.
  • Beat the eggs in a small bowl, then whisk them into the maple mixture until smooth and fully incorporated.
  • Roll out the pie dough, fit it into a 9-inch pie plate, and pour the warm filling into the prepared crust.
  • Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the filling is golden brown, bubbly, and mostly set with only a slight jiggle in the center.
  • Cool the pie completely at room temperature for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.

Notes

Use 100% pure maple syrup for the best flavor. Allow the pie to cool completely for at least 2 hours before slicing so the filling can fully set. Serve plain or with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired.
