Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your baking dish with coconut oil or cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, eggs, and your choice of coconut or almond milk. Whisk in maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
  3. Pour the custard mixture into the greased baking dish and gently shake to settle it evenly.
  4. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until it puffs up slightly and is firm to the touch. A gentle jiggle in the center indicates it's set.
  5. Remove from the oven and cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
  6. Slice the custard into squares and serve warm, topped with whipped coconut cream or a sprinkle of nutmeg.
