Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

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

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • 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 doesn't slosh over when you transfer the pan to and from the oven.
