How to Make Bourbon Pumpkin Tart With Walnut Streusel

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare the tart crust according to your preferred recipe or store-bought option. Press into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, bourbon, brown sugar, eggs, spices (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves), and salt.
  3. Pour pumpkin mixture into the prepared tart crust.
  4. Prepare the streusel topping: In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, chopped walnuts, cold butter (cut into small pieces), and a pinch of salt. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the pumpkin filling.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. A knife inserted near the center should come out with a few moist crumbs attached.
  7. Let the tart cool completely on a wire rack before removing from the pan. For the best flavor, let it sit overnight.
  8. Serve and enjoy! Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.
