Great Pumpkin Custard
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
- Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
- 2 organic eggs
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup organic milk or soy milk
- Preheat the oven to 325F.
- Stir the pumpkin, cinnamon, salt, ginger, cardamom, and nutmeg together in a large bowl.
- In a smaller bowl, beat the eggs lightly, then whisk in the maple syrup, vanilla, and milk.
- Whisk the egg mixture into the pumpkin mixture until well combined.
- Pour the custard into 6 1/2-cup ramekins.
- Place the ramekins in a baking pan and add enough hot water to the dish to come up 2 inches high around the ramekins.
- Carefully transfer to the oven and bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Serve warm or chilled.
- Make sure that the baking pan you use to hold the ramekins has sides that are at least 3 inches high.
- This will ensure that the hot water you pour in doesnt slosh over when you transfer the pan to and from the oven.
