TARTE AU SUCRE



Tarte au Sucre image

More than 75 percent of the world's maple-syrup supply is produced in Quebec. In Canada the sap doesn't start running until early March, when the nights are still freezing but the days are bright. Locals process the syrup in a cabane à sucre, or sugar shack, and harvest brings with it celebration, often with a multicourse meal that puts the maple syrup front and center in dishes like this tarte au sucre, or maple syrup pie.

Categories     pies and tarts, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
5 tablespoons butter, cubed
3 tablespoons ice water
2 eggs
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup maple syrup, preferably medium dark
Crème fraîche, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Make the crust by combining the flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the flour with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture is the texture of coarse meal. Sprinkle a tablespoon of ice water at a time over the dough, lifting and tossing it with the fork. When it begins to come together, gather the dough, press it into a ball and then pull it apart. If it crumbles in your hands, it needs more water. Add a teaspoon or two more water, as needed.
  • Flatten the ball of dough and roll between two sheets of plastic wrap into a circle 10 inches in diameter. Remove the plastic and lay the dough into a 9-inch tart pan, press into place and remove excess dough. Place in the freezer.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling by beating the eggs in a bowl. Gradually whisk in the flour. Add the cream and maple syrup and whisk until combined. Pour into the crust-lined pan. Cook until the middle still jiggles but is solid, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve with créme fraîche.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This is especially important for the butter, sugar, and flour. Good-quality ingredients will produce a better-tasting tart.
  • Make sure the butter is cold before you start. This will help to prevent the dough from becoming greasy.
  • Work the dough quickly. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help to prevent the tart from shrinking.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
  • Let the tart cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to firm up.
  • Serve the tart with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.

Conclusion:

The tarte au sucre is a delicious and classic French dessert. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its simple ingredients and straightforward instructions, this tart is a great option for beginner bakers. So, what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
