Spiced pumpkin custard - country living

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Canned pumpkin
½ cup Evaporated skim milk
¼ cup Firmly packed light-brown sugar
¼ teaspoon Ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon Ground ginger
⅛ teaspoon Ground nutmeg
⅛ teaspoon Salt
1 large Egg
1 large Egg white

Directions

1. In 1-quart microwave-safe bowl, combine pumpkin, evaporated skim milk, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Microwave, uncovered, on medium (50 perent) 3 minutes. In small bowl, beat egg and egg white until blended.

2. Slowly stir egg mixture into pumpkin mixture; divide pudding mixture among four 5-oz microwave-safe custard cups. Microwave on medium (50 percent) 2 to 3 minutes or until puddings are barely firm.

(Do not overcook; puddings will thicken and firm more upon cooling.) Set aside to cool at least 10 minutes. Serve warm or cover and refrigerate until cold.
