Vermont Maple Cream Meringue Pie image

The taste of real Maple syrup is so good- yet so sweet at times- depending on the number of cold days before the syrup begins to drip- a long wait but well worth it-- my Vermont friends say this is the best recipe and is a treat at their Maple Festival... Give it a try..I made it with this recipe from Margaret.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

FILLING:
2 Tbsp corn starch
1/4 c water
1 c real maple syrup
1 c heavy whipping cream
3 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
3 Tbsp butter
1 large 9-inch baked pie shell
BROWN SUGAR MERINGUE:
3 large egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
6 Tbsp light brown sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Filling: In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir in syrup and cream. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat to medium; cook. stirring constantly, 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat.
  • 2. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; stirring well and return mixture to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Gently stir in butter. Pour into baked pie shell.
  • 3. Brown Sugar Meringue: In a large bowl, beat egg whites, vanilla and cream of tartar on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the brown sugar,1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar has dissolved( dissolving is very important with any kind of sugar). Spread evenly over hot filling, sealing edges to the crust!

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of maple, but I'm so glad I did! The maple cream filling is subtle and not overpowering at all. The meringue topping is also perfectly browned and fluffy.
