Ingredients
FOR THE PUMPKIN CUSTARD (if you don't have leftovers)
- 2 large eggs
- 15 ounces pumpkin puree homemade or store bought
- ½ cup + 2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon brandy, cognac or bourbon optional
- ¾ cup + 2 tablespoons Hot Milk warmed in the microwave in short bursts or heated over medium heat on the stovetop.
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
FOR THE BRÛLÉE:
- 8 teaspoons superfine sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
FOR THE PUMPKIN CUSTARD:
- Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and add the pumpkin puree. Whisk to combine.
- Add the brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg and cloves and whisk to combine.
- Stir in the liquor (if using), the hot milk and melted butter until the filling is smooth.
PREPARE THE RAMEKINS & WATER BATH:
- Spray the ramekins with vegetable spray and divide the pumpkin filling between them.
- Place the ramekins in a baking pan with 2-3" sides. Fill the pan with enough hot water so that it reaches about halfway up the sides of the ramikens.
- Carefully transfer the pumpkin custards to the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the custards are set.
- Remove the custards from the water bath and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
MAKE SUPERFINE SUGAR:
- To make superfine sugar, add the sugar to a mini food processor and pulse several times until the sugar has much finer granules and aerates a bit in the machine.
- Just before serving, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar over each custard. Use the kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar and serve.
