directions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together cream, milk, syrup, and pumpkin, Bringing to a simmer over medium heat.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together yolks, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
  • Whisking constantly, gradually add hot cream mixture to the yolk mixture, straining through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pyrex measuring cup.
  • Divide mixture evenly among six 6-ounce ramekins or custard cups.
  • Line the bottom of a 9 by 13 inch baking pan with a kitchen towel to prevent custards from scorching; place ramekins on top of towel.
  • Place in oven on center rack, and pour enough boiling water in pan to come halfway up sides of ramekins.
  • Cover pan tightly with foil, and bake until custard is set and a knife inserted in center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Allow to cool completely, then refrigerate, covered first with paper towel (to absorb moisture), and then with plastic wrap, for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • Serve garnished with chopped crystallized ginger and sweetened whipped cream.
