Pumpkin is one of my favorite fall foods to cook with. I have a ton of pumpkin recipes. I’m a huge dessert fan, and one of my favorite desserts is creme brulee, so when I found a recipe for Pumpkin Creme Brulee a few of years ago I tried it out on some friends we had over and it was huge hit. Here’s the recipe, enjoy!
-
8 egg yolks
-
1/3 cup maple syrup
-
2 Tbsp. light brown sugar
-
1 cup buttermilk
-
1 cup heavy cream
-
2/ cup pumpkin puree
-
3 Tbsp demerara sugar (raw sugar, or sugar in the raw)
Place 6 individual heatproof ramekins or custard cups in a baking dish. Pour the custard mixture into the ramekins or custard cups, then pour hot water into the baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins, being careful not to get any water in the ramekins.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until the brulee is just set with a slight softness at the center. Leave the dishes to cool in the water, then left them out, place on a tray, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 3-4 hours.
At serving time, sprinkle the tops of the desserts with the demerara sugar and caramelize with a blowtorch.
