Bourbon Brûlée Pumpkin Pie

Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best flavor.
Store leftover pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
For longer storage, freeze the pie without the brûlée topping for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
The brûlée topping is best done just before serving for maximum crispness.

Crust options: Try a graham cracker or gingersnap crust for added crunch and flavor.
Extra indulgence: Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
FAQ
Can I make this pie ahead of time?
Yes! You can bake the pie a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Add the brûlée topping just before serving.

What if I don’t have a kitchen torch?
A broiler works, but watch it closely! You can also skip the brûlée topping and serve with caramel sauce instead.

Can I use fresh pumpkin instead of canned?
Absolutely! Use 1¾ cups of homemade pumpkin puree in place of canned. Just make sure it’s well-drained to avoid excess moisture.

This Bourbon Brûlée Pumpkin Pie is the perfect mix of creamy, spiced pumpkin filling with a crispy caramelized top—sure to impress at any gathering! Enjoy!
