Tips:

For a smoother custard, use a blender or food processor to blend the pumpkin, eggs, milk, and spices until smooth.
If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can whisk the ingredients together until smooth. Be sure to whisk vigorously to avoid lumps.
Bake the custard in a water bath to prevent the custard from curdling.
To make the praline topping, use a heavy saucepan to melt the butter and sugar. Stir constantly to prevent the mixture from burning.
Once the sugar has melted, add the pecans and stir to coat.
Pour the praline topping over the custard before serving.
