Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Step 2

Whisk egg yolks and brown sugar together in a large bowl. Stir in heavy cream, pumpkin puree, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Step 3

Divide pumpkin mixture between seven (5-inch) ramekins about 1/2 inch from the top.

Step 4

Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill with the baking dish hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Step 5

Bake in preheated oven until just set, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove ramekins and refrigerate until completely cool, at least 2 hours.

Step 6

Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of sugar onto each creme brulee. Melt the sugar with a chef's torch until crisp and dark brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.
