Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 cup Raw Honey Provides a natural, floral sweetness; for a unique twist, try maple syrup.
  • 3 large Eggs Essential for a creamy filling; no substitutions recommended to maintain texture.
  • 1/3 cup Quality Whiskey (Bourbon or Rye) Infuses warmth and depth; feel free to omit for a non-alcoholic alternative.
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter Adds richness and enhances flavor; margarine can substitute but may slightly alter taste.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Balances the flavors with sweetness; no substitutions needed.
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt Enhances flavors by cutting sweetness; kosher salt can work in a pinch.
For the Crust
  • 1 each Pie Crust (All-Butter or Gluten-Free) Serves as the perfect foundation; store-bought options save prep time.

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie pan
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • Fine mesh sieve

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan and chill in the fridge.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth and pale (2-3 minutes). Gradually add raw honey and whiskey, whisk until combined.
  3. Incorporate melted butter, sugar, and sea salt. Mix until the filling is smooth.
  4. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into the prepared pie crust.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, until edges are firm and center jiggles slightly.
  6. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack for at least 1-2 hours before serving.
