- Temper the egg yolks and sugar mixture by adding 2-3 tbsp. of scalded cream to egg yolk mixture and pulse 2-3 times.
- Add remaining cream and pulse 4-6 times until well mixed. Pour cream through a sieve slowly to remove bubbles.

- When the cream is finished baking, transfer the ramekins to a new pan and place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
- After the cream is sufficiently chilled, combine remaining ¼ cup sugar and pumpkin pie spice and sprinkle on top of cream.
- Use a blow torch to caramelize the sugar and spices on top.
Horrible choice for a dessert, nutritionally speaking. Twenty-three grams of saturated fat in only one-half cup?!!! I appreciate the Blendtec recipes that use healthy ingredients such as fresh fruits and vegetables.
I REALLY wish BlendTec would stop posting recipes that do not require anything more than a regular blender! You’re not doing a very good job of setting your product apart from mainstream blenders. Don’t get me wrong, I love my BlendTec, but I really want to see something new.
Do you have a traditional recipe without the Pumpkin? How about a recipe for traditional Flan?
I would LOVE a custard recipe PLEASE!!!
This is the first time we’ve tried a recipe like this, so we don’t have another version of it, or of a traditional Flan recipe. It is a great idea and something we could look into doing. Thanks for the idea!
