Ingredients
  

  • 3 eggs separated
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • ½ cup condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 unbaked pie shell
  • whipped topping or fresh fruit for garnish

Step by Step Directions
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pie Instructions
  1. In a small mixing bowl, use a whisk to beat the egg whites until frothy. Set aside for a second.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, stir the egg yolks, brown sugar, maple syrup, condensed milk, melted butter, cinnamon and nutmeg together until combined.
  3. Add the whipped egg whites and fold into the mixture.
  4. Pour the maple syrup mixture into an unbaked 9-inch pie shell. Bake for 40-45 minutes. The edges of the pie should be completely set and look firm but the middle will still be slightly jiggly. The pie will firm up as it cools.
  5. Cool until the pie is at least at room temperature before slicing and serving.
  6. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh fruit.
