Pumpkin, eggs, sugar, milk, vanilla, spices, and raisins all ready to go into prepared dishes….
I used 12 – 4 oz. ramekins. Baked for 45 minutes. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before inverting onto a plate.
If you don’t have ramekins, use a large-size muffin tin. You may have to vary the baking time.
Sprinkle powdered sugar over the individual servings.
I know you’ll enjoy this dessert!
