Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and sea salt. Add the cold unsalted butter and use a pastry blender or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2
Gradually pour in the pure Canadian maple syrup, stirring with a fork until the dough comes together in a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled pastry dough to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim the edges and press the dough into the corners of the pan.
4
In a small bowl, whisk together the large eggs and chopped walnuts. Pour the egg mixture over the pastry dough, spreading it evenly to cover the entire surface. Drizzle with the remaining pure Canadian maple syrup.
5
Bake the tart for 40-45 minutes, or until the pastry crust is golden brown and the filling is set. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.
