Ingrédients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 6 teaspoons superfine sugar, for caramelizing
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and prepare a baking dish large enough to hold six 6-ounce ramekins.
- In a medium saucepan, combine heavy cream and whole milk. Heat over medium heat until the mixture begins to simmer, then remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the canned pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and egg yolks until smooth. Add vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt. Mix until well combined.
- Slowly add the warm cream mixture to the pumpkin mixture, whisking constantly until fully incorporated.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl with a spout, discarding any solids.
- Divide the custard mixture evenly among the ramekins. Place the ramekins in the baking dish and add hot water to the dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Carefully transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custards are set around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the center.
- Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate the custards for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- When ready to serve, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of superfine sugar evenly over the top of each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a crisp, golden-brown crust.
- Allow the sugar to harden for a minute before serving.
