In honor of the Michigan Republican Primary being held today (you still have a few hours to cast your vote!), here's a recipe for something called Michigan Maple Syrup Pie. This is really easy to make, though it seems to be very...maple-y? I would put the nuts on top of it just to add a little something. (Also, I would assume you could use Vermont maple syrup and turn this into Vermont Maple Syrup Pie?)
The link above has other Michigan-centered recipes, including Michigan Apple Crumble Bars.
Michigan Maple Syrup Pie
2 cups pure Michigan maple syrup
4 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
Set oven at 350 degrees. Beat ingredients together. Pour into an unbaked 9-inch pie shell and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Top with 1 cup chopped nuts, if desired.

Hmmm, that's interesting. I live in Michigan, and if you asked me to make you something that used Michigan foods, I would choose Michigan apples, or maybe our tart cherries. At the Grand Traverse Resort, the pancakes are served not only with maple syrup but with dried cherries sprinkled on top!
