Scale
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup pumpkin puree
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large egg yolks
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Heat over medium heat until warm, then remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually add the warm cream mixture to the yolks, whisking constantly.
Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a measuring cup.
Pour the mixture into small ramekins and place them in a baking dish.
Fill the baking dish with water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until set.
Remove from the oven and let cool before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.
