BAKED BRIE WITH CROWN MAPLE® ORGANIC MAPLE SYRUP AND PEAR CONFIT

A serving size is somewhat useless in a recipe like this—whoever has access to it will eat as much of it as they can. This is a great appetizer for last-minute guests at our house, especially because it has such a pretty presentation. The warm brie topped with a slightly savory Crown Maple® organic maple syrup and pear spread is good on crackers or bread, or eaten directly with a spoon before anyone can complain.

This cool winter soup might be just as good warmed up, especially with a drizzle of smoky Crown Maple® organic maple syrup chile sauce on top. (To be fair, I love anything spicy, so this is one of my all-time favorite dishes.) The flavors are straight out of a global explorer’s cookbook—you have sweet potatoes that can be traced back to both Africa and prehistoric Polynesia, dried peppers brought up to the colonies by the Spanish conquerors of Mesoamerica, and, of course, Cro

ROBB’S CROWN MAPLE® OLD-FASHIONED

Maple and bourbon is a classic pairing—the smoky flavor of bourbon so perfectly matches the sweetness of the maple, you have to wonder why anyone ever bothered making this drink with white sugar. (Given that the Old-Fashioned dates back to 1806, it’s nearly as old as the first industrial maple producers.) This is the beverage we hand to guests when they come in the door. It’s my personal favorite, and a Turner family favorite as well. Just be sure you find a bourbon that’s n

CROWN MAPLE® MAPLE PULLED PORK

Pork and maple are best friends on any plate—and not only when you add a drizzle of maple syrup to a side of crispy bacon. By rubbing a bit of pork shoulder in our maple sugar, bourbon, and plenty of bright spices, what you get by the time the pork’s done is a pot full of rich, complex sauce. Serve a big platter of this juicy pulled pork alongside plenty of thick bread, pickles, and a batch of coleslaw such as our Crown Maple® Maple-Mustard Apple and Fennel Slaw. This is one

CROWN MAPLE® ROASTED BRUSSELS, SHALLOTS AND FARRO SALAD

Thank goodness the days of the maligned Brussels sprout are gone—no more steaming or boiling until it turns to mush. Now Brussels sprouts are one of the girls’ favorite vegetables, especially in this slightly sweet salad. Brussels sprouts love fat, sugar, and roasting, and this delicious dish of sprouts, shallots, and chewy grains is a great vehicle for Crown Maple® organic maple syrup. Don’t worry if the sprouts come apart in the oven while roasting—a few extra-crispy leaves

CROWN MAPLE® MAPLE-BOURBON PECAN PIE

Pecans, like maple syrup, are an indigenous American ingredient that has inspired fanaticism across the country, especially in the southern United States. While you could make this with molasses or even Karo syrup (yikes), why not make a marriage between these two original ingredients? Even the most traditional of Southern tasters would agree that maple syrup has earned its place in this iconic dish—it takes a classic recipe and adds a much richer flavor profile to it without

CROWN MAPLE® MUSTARD APPLE AND FENNEL SLAW

Fennel is my favorite secret salad ingredient – it takes the place of onion or celery and delivers a hint of sharp licorice flavor that jazzes up even the most traditional recipe. I love coleslaw in any form, but coleslaw made with fennel and apples is even better! You may want to use a darker grade of syrup than Golden, but don’t over do it; the very subtle flavor of maple here keeps all the other flavors in balance.

Maple in a Minute

Once we started to use maple syrup as a substitute for sugar in our day-to-day meals, we found that the uses for maple were almost infinite. Because maple can go either sweet or savory, depending on the recipe it’s used in and the grade of the syrup, you can quickly improvise to incorporate maple flavor into any number of delicious and unexpected recipes. Here are our “maple in a minute” guidelines, a great way to start playing with maple syrup in your daily meals. (These recipes can be used with any of our syrups, though some would be especially great with our bourbon barrel–aged maple syrup, for a smokier, more savory finish.)
