Equipment

  • 6 4-ounce ramekins or molds

Ingredients
 
 

  • 113 g Granulated sugar
  • 397 g Sweetened condensed milk or one 14oz can
  • 5 ea Egg yolks
  • 2 ea Whole eggs
  • 181 g Whole milk
  • 113 g Pumpkin puree canned pumpkin
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ tsp Vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp Kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Have your ramekins sitting ready in a baking pan for a water bath and preheat the oven to 290℉.
  • Add the sugar to a small pot with enough water to make wet sand. Turn the heat on high and cook until it starts to caramelize.
  • Swirl the pot to evenly caramelize the sugar and cook until a nice amber color.
  • Immediately and carefully distribute a small amount to each ramekin and allow to cool until hardened.
  • While waiting for the sugar to cool, whisk together the rest of the ingredients until homogenized.
  • Distribute evenly between the ramekins and add water to the pan halfway up the ramekins. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until theres a slight jiggle in the center and the internal temperature is 175℉.
  • Place in the fridge until cold and when ready to serve, release the sides of the ramekin with small offset spatula or a knife. Flip onto a plate and remove the ramekin allowing the caramel to drip on top. Serve cold.
