Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Pumpkin puree
- 1.5 cups Coconut milk (full-fat)
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, brown sugar, and maple syrup. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water to create a smooth slurry. Set aside.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Once simmering, stir in the cornstarch slurry and continue whisking constantly to avoid lumps forming.
Step 5
Add the pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and salt. Keep whisking as the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the custard from heat and allow it to cool slightly before pouring it into serving dishes or ramekins.
Step 7
Refrigerate the custard for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
Step 8
Serve chilled, optionally topped with whipped coconut cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
