Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 2 fresh grates of nutmeg
  • A small pinch of salt
  • 2 large free-range eggs
  • 1 cup creamy coconut milk or coconut cream for extra creaminess
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey ensure AIP compliance
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract AIP compliant

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well to blend the spices evenly into the pumpkin.
  • In another bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined and slightly frothy.
  • Add the eggs to the pumpkin mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
  • Gradually mix in the coconut milk (or coconut cream) and sweetener (maple syrup or honey) until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Pour the mixture into individual ramekins or a baking dish.
  • Place the ramekins or baking dish into a larger baking pan and fill the larger pan with hot water to create a water bath, which helps the custard cook evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the custard to cool slightly before serving.
