The Best Pumpkin Pie Custard

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

Grease ramekins with nonstick spray.

Step 3

In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, combine the pumpkin, milk, eggs, and spice until creamy.

Step 4

Pour mixture into each ramekin about 3/4 of the way-a little more is ok just as long as you are not meeting the top of the dish.

Step 5

Add ramekins to a baking tray with 1-1 1/2 cups of water to create a water bath

Step 6

Place mini pumpkin pies (on the large baking sheet) in the oven at 425 Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.

Step 7

Reduce the oven heat to 350 degrees f. and bake another 20 minutes.

Step 8

Use a toothpick inserted into the center to test if they are done. The toothpick should be clean when removed.

Step 9

Allow pies to fully cool before optionally topping them, or enjoy them warm without topping.
