This recipe won't make you skinny....in fact if you eat it you will gain approximately one pound for each slice of pie you eat! Okay, if you're still reading I'll assume you don't give a darn.
Actually this recipe is my husband's (I'm sure it's not original...I think he got it from a newspaper years and years ago). It is my all-time favorite pie and we get requests for the recipe all the time.
Just to save time I thought I'd post it here and just send people a link instead of re-typing the recipe all the time. And to my nephew Nathan......here you go!
PEPPERED MAPLE CREAM PIE
1 ½ cups heavy cream
1/3 cup flour
1 ½ cups maple syrup
2 Tablespoons Butter
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 9-inch unbaked pie shell
In a heavy saucepan, whisk together the cream and flour until smooth. Add the maple syrup, butter, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring over medium heat 10 minutes or until thickened. Do not let boil. Pour filling into pie shell and bake in a pre-heated 375 degree oven 30 minutes, or until bubbling. Cool on a rack, then refrigerate until thoroughly cooled before serving. Personal Note: The more pepper the better and it MUST be freshly ground. MMMMM! I'm so hungry!
