Steps

Mix together the maple syrup, vanilla and baking soda in a bowl, then pour into pie crust
2

Now mix the flour, brown sugar, and nutmeg in a large bowl and sift well. You can run this mixture through a sieve to prevent brown sugar clumps.
3

Add the soft (or melted) butter to dry ingredients. Mix well and knead into the shape of the pie shell, add on top of syrup mixture.
4

Bake at 375F (190C) for 30 minutes. Allow to cool before eating otherwise it will still be a bit soft in the middle. Enjoy with tea and vanilla ice cream!
