- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
- Spices: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cardamom, allspice

Instructions
- Prepare the crust by mixing flour, sugar, and salt; cut in cold butter until crumbly. Add egg, vinegar, and ice water until combined. Chill for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out chilled dough and fit it into a pie dish. Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown; cool completely.
- Whisk together eggs, pumpkin puree, sour cream, maple syrup, and spices in a bowl until smooth.
- Pour filling into cooled crust and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 50 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center. Cool at room temperature for at least two hours before chilling.
- For the topping, whisk heavy cream with sugar until soft peaks form; top each slice before serving.
- For the brûlée effect, sprinkle sugar on chilled slices and use a kitchen torch to caramelize.
