Ingredients

1 pre-made 9-inch pie crust

3/4 cup maple syrup

2 cups whole milk

1/2 cup heavy cream

3 large eggs

1/3 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)

Whipped cream for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2. Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple syrup, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.

5. Gradually add the warm milk mixture to the egg mixture, whisking constantly to avoid curdling.

10. Serve chilled with a dollop of whipped cream.
