Best Bourbon Pumpkin Pie Bites Recipes

VANILLA-BOURBON PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor to combine. Add about one-third of the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like cornmeal. Add the remaining butter and pulse until it is in pea-size pieces. Add the vanilla seeds, bourbon and 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water; pulse until the dough just comes together. Turn out onto a piece of plastic wrap; shape into a disk and wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Put a baking sheet on the middle oven rack and preheat to 425 degrees F for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp with your fingers or a fork. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Combine the heavy cream, bourbon and cinnamon stick in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; bring to a simmer. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and let cool slightly. Whisk in the pumpkin, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside.
• Line the crust with foil, then fill with pie weights or dried beans. Transfer to the hot baking sheet in the oven and bake until lightly golden around the edge, about 15 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue baking until the crust is dry and golden all over, about 5 more minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely; leave the baking sheet in the oven. Reduce the temperature to 375 degrees F.
• Discard the cinnamon stick from the filling; pour into the cooled crust and return the pie to the hot baking sheet. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. (Tent the crust with foil if it browns too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.

BOURBON PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Roll out 3/4 of the dough 1/8 of an inch thick on a lightly floured surface; fit it into a 10-inch (6 cup) pie plate, and trim the edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang.
• Fold the overhang under the dough flush with the edge of the pie plate and with a sharp knife, make 1/2-inch-long cuts at 3/4-inch intervals all the way around the edge of the shell.
• Turn every other section of the dough in toward the center of the shell to form a decorative edge and chill the shell for 30 minutes.
• Roll out the remaining dough 1/8-inch thick on a lightly floured surface and with a 3-inch leaf-shaped cutter, cut out 3 leaves.
• Transfer the pastry leaves to a baking sheet, score them lightly with the back of a knife to form veins, and chill them for 15 minutes, or until they are firm.
• Brush the leaves lightly with some of the egg wash and bake them in the middle of a preheated 375°F oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden.
• Transfer the leaves to a rack and let them cool completely.
• In a bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, the brown sugar, the spices, the salt, the heavy cream, the milk, the eggs, and the bourbon until the filling is smooth and pour the filling into the shell.
• Brush the edge of the shell lightly with some of the remaining egg wash if desired and bake the pie in the middle of a preheated 375°F oven for 1 hour, or until the filling is set but the center still shakes slightly.
• The filling will continue to set as the pie cools.
• Transfer the pie to a rack and let it cool completely.
• Garnish with the pastry leaves just before serving, and serve with whipped cream.
