A delightful low-carb pumpkin custard recipe that's perfect for the holiday season.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh pumpkin, pumpkin puree, eggs, sugar substitute, salt, cinnamon, cloves, pumpkin pie spice, and heavy cream.
Mix thoroughly to ensure all spices are evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into a well-greased pie pan.
Greasing the pan prevents sticking and makes serving easier.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the custard is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Check for doneness by gently shaking the pan; the center should be slightly jiggly.
Allow the custard to cool before serving. Enjoy it as is or with a dollop of whipped cream.
Cooling helps the custard set completely and enhances the flavor.
