Serves: 6
Preparation Time: 1 hour and 20 minutes (mostly cooking time)
1 cup butternut squash puree
2/3 cups sucanat or brown sugar
2 lightly beaten eggs
1/4 teaspoon each: salt, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
Butter six custard cups and place in a large baking dish with sides.
Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl in the order given.
Ladle the mixture into the custard cups using a soup ladle.
Pour hot water into the baking dish so it comes almost to the level of the custard mix in the cups.
Carefully place the whole business into a 350 degree oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes.
