PUMPKIN MAPLE CUSTARDS

This sweet treat comes from Eduardo Braniff, of New York City. When refrigerating, cover first with a paper towel (over custards, not touching) then with plastic wrap. The towel absorbs moisture and keeps the custards free of droplets.

Time 3h

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup canned solid-pack pumpkin
7 large egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees, with rack in the center. In a medium saucepan, whisk together cream, milk, syrup, and pumpkin. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together yolks, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  • Whisking constantly, gradually add hot cream mixture to the yolk mixture. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large liquid measuring cup (for easy pouring).
  • Divide mixture evenly among six 6-ounce ramekins or custard cups. Line the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with a kitchen towel; place ramekins on top.
  • Place in oven, and pour enough boiling water in pan to come halfway up sides of cups. Cover pan tightly with foil. Bake until custard is set and a knife inserted in center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely, then refrigerate, covered first with paper towel and then with plastic wrap, for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
