How to Make Abby S Pumpkin Pie Crustless Custard

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease 10 (6-ounce) ramekins, custard cups, or coffee mugs with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk, 2 large egg whites, and ½ cup skim milk until completely smooth.
  3. Add ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared ramekins, filling each about ¾ full.
  5. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet to prevent spills during baking.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven and the size of your baking dishes.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the custard to set completely.
  9. Before serving, top with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra touch of deliciousness.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
