Line a 9-inch pie plate with pie dough, decorate edge and place in freezer until ready to fill.
Heat oven to 350°F with rack in the lower third.
Bring maple syrup, brown sugar, corn syrup and salt to a boil in saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Continue boiling 1 min, reducing heat as needed to prevent mixture from boiling over.
Remove pan from heat. Add bourbon and butter and stir until butter melts. Let cool to lukewarm
Spread hazelnuts in prepared crust in pie plate. Beat together eggs and vanilla, whisk in cooled maple mixture and pour over hazelnuts.
Bake pie until filling is set and slightly puffed, about 1 hr; cover crust with foil for the last 20 min to prevent over-browning. Cool completely (about 3 hours)
Toss some extra hazelnuts with a little metallic dust for garnish.
Notes
Use vanilla extract in place of the bourbon if you are not using alcohol.You can also use edible gold spray paint to spray extra hazelnuts for garnish. It makes a pretty metallic decoration!Storage: Store pie at room temperature, covered, for up to one day.
