Pumpkin Creme Brulee

October 12, 2012 | 2:00 PM | Recipes | By Maxfield Barker

The fall goodies keep on coming. We can’t get enough pumpkin. Pumpkin pie, pumpkin candy, pumpkin beer, the list goes on. But, here is one more for your repertoire courtesy of Executive Chef Brian Feirstein at Cask 63. Aside from our love affair with all things pumpkin, creme brulee is also on the top of our list. So, why not combine the two? That’s exactly what Chef Feirstein did, and we couldn’t be happier. What’s more, he was kind enough to share the recipe with us. So, we’ll be nice and share it with all of you as well. Check it out (this recipe is for 12 people.)

2 quarts heavy cream

6 oz of pumpkin puree

15 each egg yolks

2.25 cups of sugar

1 oz. of vanilla extract
