Pumpkin Spice Creme Brûlée
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/3 cup plus 2 tbsp sugar plus more for topping
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 vanilla bean
- 3 cloves
- 1 cinnamon stick
- pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 5 egg yolks
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Oven 325 F
- In a saucepan, add cream, vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, cloves, salt and cook over low heat just until hot.
- Let the cream sit for 10 minutes and allow the spice flavors to infuse the cream, then discard the vanilla bean, nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon stick.
- In a bowl, beat egg yolks , vanilla extract, and sugar together until light. Then add the pumpkin puree and stir. Now stir in the room temperature cream in 2 parts.
- Pour the creme brulee mixture through a sieve to remove any lumps or textures and then pour into four 6-ounce ramekins.
- Place ramekins in a baking dish; fill dish with boiling water halfway up the sides of the dishes.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the centers are barley set. Allow them to sit in the pan for 5-10 minutes and then remove them and set aside to cool completely. Refrigerate the creme brulee for at least 4-6 hours before enjoying. I highly recommend you allow them to set overnight in the fridge for the best result.
- When ready to serve, top each custard with about a teaspoon of sugar. You can use a blow torch to caramelize the sugar or place in the boiler.
