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!
