Steps:
- For the crust:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add all the ingredients for the crust to a food processor and pulse until combined; it should feel like wet sand, and just come together.
- Spread the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie pan, using your finger tips or the flat bottom of a glass. Firmly press the mixture over the bottom and sides of the pan.
- Put the pan on the middle rack of the oven and bake until the crust is light brown and firm to the touch, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
- For the filling:
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
- Whisk together the eggs, yolks and sugars in a large bowl. Add the butter, pumpkin, cream, spices, salt and vanilla seeds and whisk to combine. Strain the mixture into a bowl.
- Pour the strained mixture into the baked pie crust and bake until almost set, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove and let come to room temperature. Refrigerate until chilled, if preferred.
- Cook's Note: The filling makes more than what is needed to fill the pie shell. You are able to freeze the excess. We made a double batch and it filled 3 pie shells very comfortably.
- For the whipped cream:
- Combine the cream, vanilla seeds, syrup and bourbon in a large chilled bowl and whip until soft peaks form.
- Garnish each piece of pie with a dollop of the whipped cream before serving.

Steps:
- Make the pie dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, and salt. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut shortening into the flour until the shortening breaks down into pea-sized pieces.
- Add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and stir gentle until the dough starts to come together.
- Dump the dough onto a work surface lined with 2 large pieces of plastic wrap. Shape dough into a disc and wrap tightly with the plastic wrap. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C)
- Make the filling: In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the pumpkin and sugar-spice mix and whisk to combine. Slowly whisk in the evaporated milk until incorporated.
- Once the dough has chilled, lightly flour a clean surface. Roll out the dough to a ¼-inch (6 mm)-thick round. Keep the surface and rolling pin floured as needed so the dough doesn't stick. Transfer the dough to a 9½-inch pie pan (24 cm). Tuck the edges under and crimp. Note: The key to flaky pie crust is to handle it as little and as gently as possible. Handle it only as much as is absolutely necessary to mix, shape, and roll out.
- Pour the filling into the pie shell.
- Bake the pie for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350˚F (180˚C) and bake for another 40 minutes, or until the center jiggles slightly.
- Cool the pie on a wire rack for 2 hours.
- Slice and serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
- Enjoy!
