Servings: 8
 
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree (or use 1 1/2 cups 100% canned pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling)
4 egg yolks
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups heavy cream

Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 C).

Whisk the pumpkin puree (or 1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin) and egg yolks until smooth. Add the sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg and whisk again until well combined. Stir in the cream. Divide the mixture among 8 six- or eight-ounce ramekins or 8 pots de creme pots. Place the ramekins or pots de creme pots in a shallow baking pan. Add enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for about 25 minutes or until the custard is almost firm. Remove from water bath and let cool at room temperature. (The custard will thicken up as it cools.) Cover with plastic wrap (or with pots de creme lids) and refrigerate. Serve cold or room temperature.

Makes 8 servings.
