French Canadian Maple Sugar Pie
Tarte au Sucre (Sugar Pie)



French Canadian Maple Sugar Pie

I found this recipe in the Maple Syrup Cookbook by Ken Haedrich. He
says it's like a pecan pie with a nice tart edge, and that it's
excellent with vanilla ice cream. Where the recipe calls for brewed
tea, he suggests using lemon herbal tea. I can't wait to try it!

8-10 servings
45 minutes 10 mins prep

1 pie crust
3 eggs
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar, plus
2 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup pure maple syrup
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup brewed tea
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, plus
1/2 teaspoon apple cider, vinegar
1 pinch salt
3/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts


Line a 9-inch pie plate with the pastry crust, and refrigerate or freeze.
Preheat oven to 450 F. Whisk together the eggs and sugar in a large bowl.
Add the maple syrup, butter, tea, vinegar, and salt, whisking until
smooth. Stir in the walnuts. Place the pie shell on a heavy baking sheet
and pour in the filling. Place on the center rack of the oven and bake for
10 minutes. Then reduce oven to 350F and continue to bake until the center
is set, about 25 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at
room temperature. This is good cold, too.
