Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, spices, and salt. Whisk together until smooth and well incorporated.
- Carefully pour the mixture into individual ramekins, filling them about 3/4 full.
- Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Baking
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes or until the custard is set but slightly jiggly in the center.
- Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature before transferring them to the fridge. Chill for at least 2 hours.
Bruleeing
- Once chilled, sprinkle a thin, even layer of granulated sugar on top of each custard.
- Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the sugar until it forms a beautiful crust. Alternatively, place the ramekins under a broiler until the sugar melts and turns golden, watching closely to avoid burning.
- Let the brulee sit for a few minutes to harden before serving.
Serving
- Enjoy the crispy topping as you dig into the creamy pumpkin goodness beneath!
Notes
To store, keep ramekins covered in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Bring to room temperature before bruleeing again.
