Directions
Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gently press the pie crust into an 8-inch pie dish so it’s evenly spread out. In a bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, evaporated milk, and eggs until everything is well combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared crust. Pop the pie into the oven and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the filling is mostly set in the center. Once it’s out of the oven, let it cool on the counter for around 30 minutes, giving the filling time to finish setting before you dig in.
Serving Ideas For Family Meals
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. It also pairs well with a hot cup of coffee or tea, making it a cozy dessert for gatherings or quiet evenings.
Storage Instructions
Keep the pie covered loosely with foil or plastic wrap in the refrigerator. It will stay fresh for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap tightly and freeze for up to 1 month, thawing in the fridge before serving.
