Tarte au Sucre - Quebec Sugar Pie

Tarte au Sucre is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed on any occasion. It is also representative of the rich culinary history of Canada. Think of it as a pecan pie, but with maple syrup and no pecans. It's traditionally served with a dollop of whipped cream but a little vanilla ice cream never hurt anybody.

Instructions

Make the crust: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Buy frozen pie crust or make your own sweet pie crust.
Roll out the crust: On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into a 11 or 12-inch circle. Transfer dough to a 9-inch pie dish and trim edges.
Make the filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, and salt. Add eggs and cream and whisk until smooth. Stir in melted butter. Pour filling into prepared crust.
Bake the tart: Bake in preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until filling is set and crust is golden brown. Let cool completely before serving.
