• 1 9-inch pie shell; unbaked
• 3 egg; slightly beaten
• 1 16-ounce can pumpkin pie filling
• ¾ cups brown sugar; firmly packed
• 1½ cups half and half
• 3 tablespoons bourbon
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ginger powder
• ¼ teaspoon sea salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• Brandy Pecan Sauce

1. Preheat oven to 425ºF.
2. In a large mixing bowl combine eggs, pumpkin, ¾ cups sugar, half-and-half, 3 tablespoons bourbon, cinnamon, ginger, and salt; mix well. Pour mixture into the pie shell.
3. Bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes.
4. Reduce heat to 350ºF.
5. Bake an additional 45 minutes or until set. Set aside to cool.
