Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
-
In a saucepan, heat the pumpkin puree and heavy cream over medium heat until warmed through.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
-
Slowly pour the warm pumpkin mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly.
-
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl.
-
Divide the mixture evenly among four ramekins or oven-safe cups.
-
Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
-
Carefully transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
-
Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature.
-
Once cooled, cover the ramekins with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
-
Serve chilled, optionally topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
