Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prick the bottom of the dough all over with a fork. Line with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the is golden and dry, about 20 minutes. Remove the parchment and pie weights. Return the crust to the oven and continue baking until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly on a wire rack. 4. Meanwhile, make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar. Continue whisking while adding the butter, then the bourbon. Stir in the flour until well combined.
