Ingredients
- 1 (9 inch) pie shell, baked
- 3/4 cup real maple syrup (dark amber)
- 2 1/4 cups heavy cream
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
Instructions
1
Firstly, preheat your oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (equivalent to 150 degrees Celsius). Next, cover a large, shallow baking dish with aluminum foil and position the pie crust within its confines on the prepared surface.
2
Then, heat maple syrup in a heavy saucepan over medium heat until it reaches boiling point; continue to cook for approximately 5-7 minutes, or until the syrup has reduced by roughly one-fourth of its original volume. Stir in heavy cream; once the mixture reaches a gentle simmer, remove it from the heat source.
3
After that, combine egg yolks and whole eggs in a large mixing container. Gradually add the cream mixture to the eggs, whisking continuously as you pour in increments of about 1/4 cup. Stir in a pinch of salt, a dash of vanilla extract, and a splash of vinegar; pour the mixture into the pie crust.

Finally, bake the pie in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour, or until it has reached a mostly set consistency but still exhibits a slight jiggle when the dish is moved. Allow it to cool before serving.
