Pumpkin Creme Brulee’ Recipe

October 3, 2017 by Lisa Pinney

Creme Brulee’ always sounds a bit intimidating but it is not!

We did a test run to see if this little recipe is Thanksgiving-worthy and it was a success!

With your mixer, combine the pumpkin, eggs, brown sugar and vanilla…

Heat cream on low heat until it begins to steam…

Now take a bit of the hot cream and add to the pumpkin mixture until all incorporated…

You’ll want to get your 8 –4oz. ramekins ready…

I love my little Palm Restaurant set that was a Christmas gift last year!

Set the ramekins in a large baking dish and pour in boiling water until it comes up to the middle of the ramekin…

Just look at these little beauties!!

Bake on 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes or until set…refrigerate 4 hours or overnight…

When you’re ready to serve,

Top with this beautiful turbinado sugar…

Use your kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar….

Or you can place it under your broiler…be careful not to burn…

Enjoy!
