Before Thanksgiving, I ran across this recipe on one of my favorite food blogs. As much as I wanted to try it, there was no room on the Thanksgiving menu for this dessert too. Finally, I decided to try it yesterday. I used (gasp!) store-bought pie crust pressed into an 11-inch tart pan, which I baked beforehand with pie weights. The filling came together quite easily and quickly, and in no time I had put it back in the oven.
The pie is rather homely-looking, I must admit - you should at least dress it up with some ice cream or whipped cream, maybe a few berries or something. But it tastes great - all the deep syrupy maple sweetness and earthy spicy nutmeg make for a rich and creamy filling. An easy recipe if you're looking to bring something to one of the many holiday parties we'll all be attending in the next few weeks.
