INDIVIDUAL CRUSTLESS PUMPKIN PIE CUSTARDS (GLUTEN-FREE)



Individual Crustless Pumpkin Pie Custards (Gluten-Free) image

You won't miss the crust in these individual pumpkin pie custards! They have a luscious, creamy texture and are a cinch to make using just one bowl (in under an hour!). With cinnamon, fresh ginger and cloves, the flavor is nostalgic yet elevated. Top the custards with a dollop of whipped cream and these Candied Maple Pecans for an elegant dessert that's as fitting on a holiday table as it is on a cozy night in (I'm not gonna lie, I also love it for breakfast). For a dairy-free version, use full-fat coconut milk in place of the half-and-half. You can make one large 9-inch crustless pie if you prefer - be sure to read the notes below!

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Cooking spray or butter for ramekins
1 15- oz can pumpkin
½ cup natural cane sugar
½ teaspoon fine grain sea salt
½ teaspoon grated fresh ginger (grated on microplane)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
½ teaspoon vanilla paste or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups half-and-half
Lightly sweetened whipped cream
Candied Maple Pecans, chopped (recipe link in header)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Grease six 8-oz ramekins or baking dishes with cooking spray or butter, and arrange them on a baking sheet.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment (or using a regular bowl and hand beaters) beat together the pumpkin, sugar, salt, grated ginger, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and vanilla. Add the eggs, one and a time, and beat on medium-high until well blended. Slowly pour in the half-and-half while beating. Stir well with a rubber spatula to incorporate any bits on the bottom of the bowl (the mixture will be quite loose). Pour or ladle the custard into the prepared ramekins.
  • Bake until the custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center, about 36-38 minutes. Let the custards cool before serving.
  • Serve the custards slightly warm, at room temperature or cold with a dollop of lightly sweetened whipped cream and a sprinkle of candied maple pecans.

Instead of pumpkin pie, try this flavorful yet light and low fat dessert. If you don't have enough ramekins or custard cups you can bake this in most coffee cups.

NO-CRUST PUMPKIN PIE



No-Crust Pumpkin Pie image

Baked in a water bath, this pie has a texture that's more like a custard than a traditional pumpkin pie. In place of canned or fresh pumpkin, I sometimes use cushaw, a type of crookneck squash.
