We Made the Boozy Fireball Pumpkin Pie That All of Louisiana Will Be Talking About

Listen up, Fireball Whiskey fans! I've found your new favorite holiday recipe, and trust me, you'll want to pre-game with this one. I've actually made this pie, and the result is a flavor that's less "straight shot" and more of a very cozy, intense cinnamon-spiced dessert.

Why This Recipe is Totally Awesome

Let's be honest, who doesn't want an excuse to cook with alcohol? You know, just in case you need to "test" the main ingredient a couple of times.

While this might have felt like the perfect comfort food for a crazy year like 2020, I'm here to tell you this Fireball Pumpkin Pie is exactly what we all need right now. It is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser that brings the party to the dessert table.

Plus, if the thought of a regular Fireball shot gives you flashbacks to college (and maybe a 4:00 a.m. toilet hunch), this is the perfect way to fall back in love with that spicy cinnamon flavor, minus the regret. Surprise, you're about to enjoy Fireball again, just with a little pumpkin spice maturity.

Fireball Pumpkin Pie Recipe

Here is what you’ll need to make these incredible, boozy pumpkin pies:

Frozen Pie Crusts: 2 (9-inch, or feel free to make your own!)

Pure Pumpkin: 30 oz.

Evaporated Milk: 18 oz.

Eggs: 4

Sugar: 1 ½ cups

Salt: 1 teaspoon

Ground Ginger: 1 teaspoon

Ground Cloves: ½ teaspoon

Fireball Whiskey: 6–7 oz. (Use 6 oz. for a subtler flavor, 7 oz. if you're feeling feisty!)

The Simple Steps:

Whisk It Up: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, salt, ground ginger, ground cloves, pure pumpkin, evaporated milk, and the Fireball Whiskey. Whisk everything together until the spices and ingredients are fully incorporated.

Add the Eggs: Crack and add the four eggs to the mixture. Continue whisking until the entire mixture is smooth and evenly blended.

Pour and Bake: Carefully pour the prepared filling evenly into the two pie crusts.

Bake Time: Bake the pies for about 30 minutes. Tip: Keep an eye on them—when a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, they're done!

And just like that, you have a spicy, cinnamony, boozy pie that will steal the show.
