Maple Syrup Pie image

Maple syrup pie is completely traditional and homey Québécois fare. Achingly sweet? Not at all. The heavy cream moderates the sweetness of the maple syrup. The cornstarch thickens the mixture. That's it. A novice could obtain a baked pie shell and be done with the dish in less than a quarter-hour.
