How to Make Maple Syrup Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 cup maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup cornstarch and 1 tablespoon cold water until smooth.
- In another bowl, whisk 2 large egg yolks.
- Slowly whisk the hot maple syrup mixture into the egg yolks, ensuring constant stirring to prevent scrambling.
- Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the filling has thickened (about 2-3 minutes).
- Remove from heat and strain the filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
- In a clean, dry bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add 2 tablespoons of maple syrup while continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Spoon the meringue over the warm pie filling, spreading it evenly to the edges.
- Use the back of a spoon to create peaks on the meringue.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the meringue is golden brown and the filling is set.
