Ingredients

  • 1 9- inch All Butter Pie Crust
  • ¼ cup (57 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (118ml) pure maple syrup
  • 3 large eggs
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons (19g) yellow cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon maple extract
  • ¼ cup (49ml) whole milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Roll crust to 1/8-inch thick. Place your crust in a 9-inch pie plate and crimp edges as desired. Chill until ready to fill.
  • Whisk melted butter, sugar, maple syrup and eggs until smooth. Add the salt, cornmeal, and vanilla whisk until smooth, then whisk in milk.
  • Place the pie crust on a cookie sheet and fill with filling. Cover the edges of the crust with a pie shield to reduce browning. Bake at 425°F for 10 minutes then lower the oven temperature to 350°F and bake an additional 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden and is mostly solid (it will still jiggly slightly in the center).
  • Cool completely before slicing (it slices best cold,but tastes better room temperature).
  • Serve plain or with whipped cream or ice cream. Store covered in refrigerator. Pie can be frozen whole or in slices.
