   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
   • Line a 9-inch pie plate with pastry crust.

2. Prepare the Filling:

   • In a small bowl, stir together the baking soda and vanilla extract with the maple syrup.
   • Pour the maple syrup mixture into the unbaked pastry crust.

3. Make the Crumb Topping:

   • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, dark brown sugar, nutmeg, and chilled butter.
   • Use your fingertips to blend the ingredients until the mixture becomes crumbly.

4. Assemble and Bake:

   • Spread the crumb topping evenly over the maple syrup mixture in the pie crust.
   • To prevent spills, place a piece of foil under the pie plate before baking.
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

5. Cool and Serve:

   • Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Sugar Pie is traditionally enjoyed cold, so refrigerate before serving for the best flavor.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Slice and serve the Canadian Sugar Pie cold, savoring each bite of its rich, maple-infused filling and buttery crumb topping.
