Tarte Au Sucre Francaise (French Canadian Sugar Pie) image

My grandmother use to make a "tarte au sucre" for every family gathering. The kids would be wired all day, lol. I have been looking for a recipe that turns out like hers for a long time now. I have tried a few, all delicious, but not quite the same. A few weeks ago, my Mom was looking through a box of stuff left behind after my grandma passed away a while back and , there it was....... Her recipe for tarte au sucre. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do. You might want to have a glass of milk with you when you do eat it, it is extremely sweet!

FRENCH CANADIAN MAPLE SUGAR PIE

I found this recipe in the Maple Syrup Cookbook by Ken Haedrich. He says it's like a pecan pie with a nice tart edge, and that it's excellent with vanilla ice cream. Where the recipe calls for brewed tea, he suggests using lemon herbal tea. I can't wait to try it!

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.
