Maple Nut Pie

Maple Nut Pie

The all-American favorite Maple Nut Pie is a scrumptious treat that is not only delicious, but also provides a healthy boost to physical and mental wellbeing. The main components of this classic dessert - maple syrup, walnuts and nutmeg - have all been studied for their nutritional and medicinal benefits. Maple syrup is full of antioxidants and has a low glycemic index, meaning it does not cause spikes in blood sugar. Walnuts are rich in essential omega-3 fatty acids, which are important for brain and heart health. Finally, the nutmeg that is sprinkled over the top of the pie is a powerful spice with medicinal properties that can help you relax and experience a sense of peace and balance. The combination of these ingredients makes Maple Nut Pie a perfect indulgence for those looking to lead a sattvic lifestyle.
