Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, whisk to combine yolks, sugar, and stevia.

In a medium saucepan, bring cream to a simmer. Whisk into yolk mixture. Whisk in pumpkin, vanilla, and spices.
Step 4
Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup.
Step 5
Divide mixture between six 6-ounce ramekins set in a roasting pan or other deep baking dish. Place pan in oven and pour in scalding hot water so it comes halfway up sides of dishes.

Step 7
Before serving, sprinkle custards with a layer of sugar and use a propane torch or broiler to caramelize sugar.
