This gourmet dessert is a wonderful alternative to the Thanksgiving standard of pumpkin pie. I like to offer 2 desserts for that day. This one can be made the day before, freeing up valuable time on Thanksgiving Day for other preparations. These melt in your mouth.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Combine the whipping cream, 1/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, pumpkin puree, and the vanilla bean pod and seeds in a saucepan over medium-low heat; bring to a simmer; stir in the rum. Remove from the heat cover and stand 15 minutes.
- Beat together the egg yolks and 2 tablespoons sugar. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the cream mixture. Pour the egg yolk mixture into the saucepan with the cream mixture to make a custard; stir; simmer 3 to 5 minutes.
- Arrange 6 ramekins in a shallow baking dish. Pour the custard evenly into the ramekins. Pour boiling water into the baking dish to half-way up the sides of the ramekins. Loosely cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the custard is nearly set with a dime-sized circle of jiggly liquid remaining in the center of each ramekin, 25 to 40 minutes. Allow to sit, loosely covered with aluminum foil, another 30 minutes.
- Cover each ramekin with plastic wrap; chill in refrigerator overnight. Top each custard with pecans and maple syrup to serve.

I saw this today on Sara's Secrets, episode 'All About Maple Syrup'. They looked so good in their individual ramekins, I had to come post it here so I could find it again.

Tips:
- Mise en place: As with any baking recipe, it's important to have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go before you start cooking. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
- Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree will give your pots de crème a richer flavor and a more vibrant color. If you don't have time to make your own pumpkin puree, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but be sure to drain it well before using.
- Don't overcook the custard: The custard should be cooked until it is just set. If you overcook it, it will become rubbery.
- Chill the pots de crème thoroughly: The pots de crème need to be chilled for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow them to set properly and develop their full flavor.
Conclusion:
Maple Pumpkin Pots de Crème are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like them classic or with a twist, these pots de crème are sure to impress.
