This pie originally was a French Canadian pie, but we’ve found that using pure Vermont Maple syrup, in particular, Snowshoe Pond or Rock Maple Syrup, does wonders to enhance the outcome. (No bias here what-so-ever.)
Ingredients:
• 1.5 cups of Snowshoe Pond or Rock Maple Syrup
• 1 cup of heavy cream
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 9″ pre-baked pie shell
If you’re looking for a garnish, try crumbling some maple candied nuts on top. How do you maple candy nuts? Cook maple syrup, nuts of your choice, and a pinch of salt in a non-stick pan and stir constantly until the syrup has caramelized/coated the nuts and there’s no liquid left in the pan (2-5mins). Separate them out on wax paper and let cool.
