Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Place your store-bought or homemade pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Press it tightly against the edges.
Making the Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, spices, and bourbon. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Baking
- Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 45-50 minutes until the filling is set in the middle.
Brûlée Topping
- Once the pie cools, sprinkle granulated sugar evenly over the top.
- Use a kitchen torch to brûlée the sugar until it melts and forms a crispy caramelized layer. Alternatively, use a broiler for a minute, monitoring closely.
Chilling and Serving
- Let the pie cool in the fridge for about 2 hours, slice, and serve with whipped cream.
Notes
Don’t overbeat the eggs to avoid cracks. Chill the pie for enhanced flavors and easier slicing.
