Nutmeg Maple Cream Pie

This Thanksgiving, I discovered my FAVORITE RECIPE TO DATE!  This Nutmeg Maple Tart.

It almost tastes like pumpkin pie, only it is MUCH MUCH better.  It blends the beautiful, subtle sweet-nutty flavor of Maple Syrup with Nutmeg and Cinnamon to make a beautifully browned tart.  Those who have followed my baking adventures from the start claim that it is the best dessert I have made thus far. I’d have to agree.  This tart is EXTREMELY good.

Those of you who have had trouble with making the perfect Tart Shell will celebrate too.  This recipe makes a perfect, unshrinkable tart shell.  Its buttery and crumbly, and does not require pie weights!  Something you’d expect from a Dorie Greenspan recipe..

Without further ado, here are the RECIPES for the UNSHRINKABLE TART SHELL and the NUTMEG MAPLE TART.  If you have a holiday dinner coming up, I’d highly recommend this crowd-pleaser.  You’ll have nothing left by the end of the night : ).
