For best results, use high-quality spices to enhance the flavor profile. Toast the pecans lightly before chopping to bring out their nutty flavor. You can do this in a dry pan over medium heat for a few minutes, or in the oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 5-7 minutes. If you don't have ramekins, you can use a similar-sized oven-safe dish, but adjust the baking time accordingly. Be careful not to overbake the custard, as it can become rubbery. The knife test is the best way to determine doneness.

01 Step
Recipe View Custard Preparation (5 minutes): Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly grease six 6-ounce (180ml) ramekins and arrange them on a baking sheet. This ensures even cooking and prevents sticking.
02 Step
Recipe View Mixing the Custard Base (10 minutes): In a medium bowl or a large glass measuring cup, lightly beat the eggs with a fork. Add 2/3 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, vanilla extract, allspice, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Stir in the pumpkin puree until well blended. Gradually stir in the evaporated milk until smooth.
03 Step
Recipe View Pouring into Ramekins (2 minutes): Evenly pour the custard mixture into the prepared ramekins, filling them almost to the top.
04 Step
Recipe View First Bake (20 minutes): Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. This initial bake sets the custard slightly.
05 Step
Recipe View Preparing the Pecan Topping (5 minutes - while custards are baking): In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons brown sugar, flour, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Add the melted butter and stir well. Fold in the chopped toasted pecans.
06 Step
Recipe View Adding the Topping (2 minutes): After the initial 20-minute bake, carefully remove the ramekins from the oven and sprinkle the pecan topping evenly over each custard.
07 Step
Recipe View Final Bake (15 minutes): Return the ramekins to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. This ensures the custard is fully cooked and the topping is golden brown.
08 Step
Recipe View Cooling and Serving (10 minutes cooling + serving): Transfer the ramekins to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm or chilled, topped with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
