Description

Ingredients

• 1½ cups (350ml) heavy cream or evaporated milk
• 3 cups packed (600g | 1.3lb) light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1/4 cup (40g | 1.4oz) unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1/4 tsp Himalayan salt
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract, (store-bought or homemade)
• 1- 9 deep dish pie crust
• Heavy cream or egg and milk to brush the pie crust
• 1 cup whipped cream
• Pure maple sugar flakes

Directions

• Grease a deep dish pie plate and press the pie shell into it. Set aside.
• Mix the brown sugar and flour together in a large bowl; add the cream (or evaporated milk) and mix delicately until very well combined and no longer frothy on top.
• Add the eggs and stir them in with a wooden spoon. The use of a whisk is not recommended here, as you dont want to incorporate any air into the mixture.
• Add salt and vanilla extract and stir until completely incorporated.
• If time permits, let the sugar mixture rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Doing so allows the gluten to relax and the sugar to dissolve, resulting in a much smoother, creamier filling.
• While the mixture is resting, preheat your oven to 350°F
• Brush the pie crust with a bit of heavy cream (or an egg beaten with a few tablespoons of milk) and carefully pour the sugar mixture in. Bake in the oven for 60 minutes, then kill the heat, leave the oven door ajar and let the pie to cool in the oven until you can safely handle it with your bare hands.
• Transfer the pie to the refrigerator and allow to cool completely.
• Garnish with whipped cream and pure maple sugar flakes at the moment of serving, if desired.
