Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and tools.
  2. Whisk together melted, cooled butter and Grade B maple syrup until combined. Stir in brown sugar, cornmeal, and kosher salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, egg yolk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until blended. Pour into the maple-sugar blend and mix gently.
  4. Place the blind-baked pie shell on a baking sheet. Brush edges with beaten egg and fill with the maple mixture.
  5. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour until edges puff and the center jiggles slightly. The filling should be golden.
  6. Cool the pie on a wire rack for 4 to 6 hours to let the filling set.
  7. Sprinkle flaky sea salt over the top before serving. Slice and serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
