Ingredients

  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 4 egg yolks
  • cup sugar
  • cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup pumpkin butter
  • turbinado sugar for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325F.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, and pumpkin butter over medium heat. Heat, whisking often, until mixture starts to bubble around the edges (not boiling).
  • Meanwhile, in another medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, white sugar, and brown sugar until creamy, smooth, and lighter in color.
  • Whisking constantly, slowly pour the hot pumpkin milk mixture into the egg mixture until well-blended.
  • Divide the creme brûlée evenly into 6-8 small ramekins (depends on how full you want them), and place them on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until custard is set and jiggles only a small bit in the center (it will become more firm as it cools).
  • Let come to room temperature, then cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hrs to solidify.
  • When ready to serve, spoon some turbinado sugar evenly on the pumpkin creme brûlée. Either use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar, or broil for a couple of minutes in your oven broiler. Watch closely so they do not burn. Serve warm and enjoy!
