PUMPKIN FLAN WITH MAPLE CARAMEL

Categories     dessert

Time 5h10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup pure Grade A maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon fleur de sel
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
1 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
1/2 cup (4 ounces) Italian mascarpone
4 extra-large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon pure maple extract, such as Boyajian
2 teaspoons grated orange zest (2 oranges)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Steps:

  • For the caramel, combine the sugar, maple syrup and 1/3 cup water in a small deep heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to a boil, swirling the pan (don?t stir!) to dissolve the sugar. Cook at a low boil without stirring for 5 to 10 minutes, until the mixture turns a golden brown and registers 230 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Watch it carefully so it doesn?t burn! Off the heat, swirl in the fleur de sel and immediately pour into an 8-by-2-inch round cake pan (not a springform!). Set aside to cool for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, canned pumpkin and mascarpone in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on medium-low speed until smooth. Whisk in the eggs, vanilla, maple extract, orange zest, cinnamon and nutmeg. Gently pour the pumpkin mixture into the pan with the caramel so they don?t combine.
  • Place the pan in a roasting pan large enough to hold the cake pan flat and fill the roasting pan with enough of the hottest tap water to come halfway up the sides of the cake pan. Bake in the center of the oven for 70 to 75 minutes, until the custard is just set. It will be firm but still jiggle slightly in the middle; a knife inserted into the center of the flan will come out clean. Remove the flan from the water bath, place on a cooling rack and cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Don?t tilt the pan or the caramel will run out!
  • Run a small knife around the edge of the flan. Turn a flat serving plate with a slight lip over the cake pan and flip them, turning the flan out onto the plate. The caramel should run out over the flan. Cut into wedges and serve with the caramel spooned over each slice.

This sweet treat comes from Eduardo Braniff, of New York City. When refrigerating, cover first with a paper towel (over custards, not touching) then with plastic wrap. The towel absorbs moisture and keeps the custards free of droplets.

Lightly sweetened whipped cream

Steps:

  • For maple caramel:

Reduce heat to medium and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in bourbon and vanilla; simmer 1 minute. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Whisk cream and next 6 ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Whisk sugar and egg yolks in medium bowl. Gradually stir hot pumpkin mixture into egg yolk mixture.
  • Pour pumpkin custard into 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish; cover with foil. Place dish in 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Fill baking pan with enough hot water to come halfway up sides of dish.

Beat dough with paddle attachment at medium speed until slightly cool, about 3 minutes. Add 3 eggs, 1 at a time, beating until blended after each addition. Beat in egg yolk until blended.
  • Spoon 16 mounds of batter about the size of large eggs onto prepared sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Beat remaining egg in small bowl to blend. Brush tops of profiteroles lightly with beaten egg. Bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven to 375°F. Continue baking until puffed and dark golden brown, about 30 minutes longer. Transfer to rack to cool completely. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Store in airtight container in freezer. Remove from freezer a few hours before continuing.)
  • Rewarm caramel sauce. Using serrated knife, slice profiteroles horizontally in half. Spoon rounded 1/3 cup filling into bottom half of each profiterole. Cover with top halves. Drizzle with sauce. Spoon dollop of whipped cream atop profiteroles. Sprinkle with chopped pecans and serve.

SWEET PUMPKIN MAPLE CUSTARD



Sweet Pumpkin Maple Custard image

This rich custard, like the filling for a traditional pumpkin pie, is baked in a hollowed-out 'SmallSugar Pie' pumpkin and topped with a drizzle of maple syrup and a large spoonful of whippedcream.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil, for baking dish
2 pumpkins, such as 'Small Sugar Pie' (1 1/2 pounds each)
1 cup Pumpkin Puree for Desserts, or canned
1/2 cup pure maple syrup, plus more for serving
1/4 cup sugar
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups heavy cream
Pinch of table salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Oil a 9-by-13-inch metal baking pan; set aside. Place a steamer basket in a medium saucepan filled with several inches of water; cover, and bring water to a boil. Add pumpkins; steam until just tender, 10 to 20 minutes. Remove from steamer; set aside to cool.
  • Cut off the tops of the pumpkins, and remove the seeds and stringy pulp. Transfer to baking pan, and set aside.
  • Place puree, 1/2 cup maple syrup, sugar, eggs, 1 cup cream, salt, and spices in a medium bowl; whisk until well combined. Pour custard into prepared pumpkins, pouring in only enough to reach lower edge of opening. Bake until custard puffs and sets and a knife inserted into pumpkin comes out clean, 40 to 90 minutes, depending on shape and thickness of pumpkin. Alternatively, pour 3/4 cup mixture into six 6-ounce ovenproof ramekins or custard cups. Set ramekins in a water bath; bake until edges are firm and center is still slightly wobbly, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Whip remaining cup cream. Cut pumpkin into wedges, and serve wedges or ramekins with whipped cream and maple syrup.

Tips for Making Pumpkin Maple Custards:

- Use fresh pumpkin purée for the best flavor. If you don't have time to make your own, you can use canned pumpkin purée. Just be sure to choose a brand that is unsweetened and 100% pumpkin. - Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeating can cause the custards to be tough. Just whisk them until they are combined. - Bake the custards in a water bath. This will help to prevent them from curdling. - Let the custards cool completely before serving. This will allow them to set properly.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin Maple Custards are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for fall. They are creamy, flavorful, and have just the right amount of sweetness. Whether you are serving them for a special occasion or a simple weeknight dessert, these custards are sure to be a hit.
