Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a food processor, pulse together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt until mixed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, white vinegar, and a tablespoon of cold water.
- Add cold butter cubes to the flour mixture, processing until crumbly, then mix in the egg mixture until the dough forms.
- Shape it into a disk, wrap it in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface until about 1/8-inch thick.
- Fit the rolled dough into a 9-inch pie plate, trimming any excess.
- Chill the crust again for 15 minutes, preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the weights and let it cool.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, pure canned pumpkin, sour cream, bourbon, vanilla extract, and warm spices until smooth.
- Heat pure maple syrup over low heat, stir in heavy cream, then fold into the pumpkin mixture.
- Carefully pour the filling into the pre-baked crust. Bake at 350°F for 55-60 minutes, until set with a slight jiggle.
- Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours, then refrigerate overnight.
- Before serving, sprinkle granulated sugar on top and caramelize using a kitchen torch or broiler.

Notes
Chill your dough for a flaky crust. Test for doneness by shaking the pie gently—the center should have a slight jiggle. Stay vigilant when caramelizing sugar to avoid burning.
