Method
Directions
Prepare the Custard
In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to steam, but not boil. Remove from heat.
Mix Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually pour the warm cream into the pumpkin mixture, whisking constantly until well combined.
Cool and Chill
Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Caramelize the Sugar
Before serving, sprinkle a thin layer of brown sugar over each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until golden and crisp.
Serve
Top each crème brûlée with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and serve immediately.
