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.

Tips:
- Fresh Ingredients Are Key: Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor and texture. Canned pumpkin puree can also be used, but fresh is always better.
- Don't Overcook the Pumpkin: Overcooked pumpkin can be tough and grainy. Cook it just until it is tender, about 15 minutes.
- Use a Good Quality Maple Syrup: The quality of the maple syrup you use will greatly affect the flavor of the pots de crème. Use a pure maple syrup that is dark and flavorful.
- Chill the Pots de Crème Thoroughly: The pots de crème need to be chilled for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This allows them to set and develop their full flavor.

These maple pumpkin pots de crème are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for fall. They are easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making them a great option for busy hosts. With their rich pumpkin flavor and creamy texture, these pots de crème are sure to be a hit with your guests.
