Richard Fontaine, chef of Restaurant La Grange de St-Charles in the town of St-Charles-sur-Richelieu, Que., wedded apples with maple in this creamy sugar pie. Granulated maple sugar is widely available in Quebec and sweetens without overpowering the apples. Elsewhere, light brown sugar is a good substitute. By The Canadian Living Test Kitchen.
