QUEBECOIS MAPLE CREAM PIE



Quebecois Maple Cream Pie image

I had the most amazing sugar pie in Quebec City, Canada at a restaurant called the Cochon Dingue. (The Crazy Pig). Their version is custardy versus the soft-fudgy/brown sugar ones that are a regional specialty. The pie tastes better if made 1 night (or more) before serving. Good luck on having it around for that long! Serve topped with creme fraiche, if desired.

Time 2h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

¾ cup real maple syrup (dark amber)
2 ¼ cups heavy cream
4 egg yolks
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
1 (9 inch) pie shell, baked

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Place the pie crust in its plate in a large, shallow baking pan lined with foil in case of a boil-over.
  • Bring maple syrup to a boil in a heavy saucepan over medium heat, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, to reduce syrup down by about one-quarter. Stir in cream, bring the mixture to a simmer, then remove from heat.
  • Whisk egg yolks and egg together in a large bowl. Very gradually add the cream mixture to the eggs, about 1/4 cup at a time, whisking constantly. Stir in salt, vanilla extract, and vinegar. Pour the batter into the prepared pie crust.
  • Bake until the pie is mostly set but jiggles slightly when moved, about 1 hour. Let cool before serving.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth and creamy fondue, use high-quality maple syrup and pure cream. Avoid using pancake syrup or other substitutes, as they may not have the same consistency or flavor.
  • If you don't have maple extract, you can substitute it with vanilla extract. However, maple extract will give the fondue a more authentic Quebec flavor.
  • You can use any type of cheese that you like for the fondue, but a combination of Swiss and Gruyère cheeses is a classic choice. Other good options include Emmental, Jarlsberg, and Gouda.
  • To prevent the fondue from burning, cook it over low heat and stir it constantly. If the fondue starts to thicken too much, you can add a little bit of milk or cream to thin it out.
  • Serve the fondue with a variety of dipping items, such as bread cubes, apple slices, and roasted vegetables. You can also serve it with a side salad or soup.

Conclusion:

Creamy maple fondue is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are a fan of maple syrup or just looking for a new and unique dessert to try, creamy maple fondue is sure to please. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try!
