heavy cream

maple syrup

🥗Healthier: agave syrup

Prick the pie crust with a fork and parbake it for 5 minutes in a 400°F (204°C) oven, then turn the oven down to 350°F (177°C).

Mix together the brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, flour, cornstarch, egg yolks, and eggs in a mixing bowl.

Warm the evaporated milk in a saucepan over medium heat until it simmers, then remove from heat and add the cold butter.

Slowly pour the warm milk into the mixture while stirring until well combined and the sugar dissolves.

Pour the filling into the prepared pie shell.

Bake at 350°F (177°C) until the mixture is set but still has a slight jiggle, about 25 minutes for a small shell and 45 minutes for a larger shell.
