Instructions
- Preheat oven to 150 degrees Celsius (300 degrees Fahrenheit).
- In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until smooth and pale.
- Slowly For the hot heavy cream into the egg mixture while whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
- Add pumpkin puree to the mixture and whisk until fully combined.
- Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a ramekin to remove any lumps.
- Place the ramekin in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the ramekin.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Remove ramekin from water bath and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, sprinkle granulated sugar evenly over the custard surface.
- Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until golden and crisp.
- Let the sugar harden for a minute before serving.
Tips
- Use canned pumpkin puree for best texture and flavor.
- Make sure to temper the eggs slowly to avoid curdling.
- Chill the custard well before caramelizing the sugar topping.
