How to Make Baked Creamy Cinnamon Pumpkin
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- If using an early-season pumpkin, lightly coat it with 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour.
- In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree (15 oz can), condensed milk (14 oz can), heavy cream (1 cup), brown sugar (1/2 cup packed), cinnamon (2 teaspoons), nutmeg (1/2 teaspoon), and ginger (1/4 teaspoon).
- Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the mixture into an oven-safe baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches).
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pumpkin is set and the top is lightly browned. If using a microwave, transfer the mixture into a microwave-safe dish and cook on high for 5-7 minutes, stirring halfway through. Continue cooking in 1-minute intervals until heated through and set. Cooking times will vary depending on your microwave's power.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra cinnamon or whipped cream, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
