Salted Maple Pie

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of maple syrup and 10 tablespoons of melted and cooled butter.

Add 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup cornmeal, and 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt to the mixture and whisk until smooth.

In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 eggs, 1 egg yolk, and 3/4 cup heavy cream until smooth.

Add 1 and 1/4 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the egg mixture and whisk to combine.

Whisk the egg and cream mixture into the maple syrup mixture until thoroughly blended.

Pour the filling into a par-baked pie crust.

Carefully transfer the pie to a 350°F oven and bake for roughly 1 hour.

When removed from the oven, the pie should feel mostly set but still a little jiggly in the center.

Sprinkle the pie with flaky sea salt.

Let the pie cool completely for at least 4 hours before cutting and serving.

Serve with a dollop of salted barely sweet whipped cream.
