Ingredients
- 2¾ cups heavy whipping cream
- 6 large egg yolks
- 1¼ cups granulated sugar divided
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Add the heavy cream to a small saucepan set over medium heat. Heat just until the cream begins to steam, but make sure it doesn’t boil!
- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and 1 cup sugar. Whisk until the egg yolks are pale yellow, about 2 minutes.
- Slowly whisk in the hot cream, stirring constantly, so the eggs don’t scramble.
- Add the pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla bean paste. Whisk to combine.
- Divide the mixture between 8 (6-ounce) ramekins and place the ramekins in a baking dish. Fill the dish with water until it reaches halfway up the ramekins.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the crème brûlée are fully set in the center.
- Remove from the oven and allow the crème brûlée to cool to room temperature. Once at room temperature, transfer them to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours.
- To serve, sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of granulated sugar over the crème brûlée and toast the top with a kitchen torch. The key to an even brûlée is to hold the torch a few inches away from the top of the brûlée and move it in a circular motion around the ramekin.
