INGREDIENTS:
– 1 small pie pumpkin
– 6 eggs, preferably pastured
– 1/2 cup grass-fed beef bone marrow (about 2 pounds of bones)
– 3/4 cups coconut milk, raw milk, or cream for a decadent texture (raw cream is not readily available in my area, but fortunately the marrow imparts a similar quality)
– 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
– 1 teaspoon ground ginger
– ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
– 1/2 teaspoon unrefined sea salt
– 1/2 – 3/4 cup maple syrup or raw honey (to taste)
INSTRUCTIONS:
– Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
– Cut pumpkin in half and scoop out seeds.
– Place pumpkin halves cut side down in a baking dish and add 1/4 inch water. Remove from the oven when you can easily pierce the shell with a fork (about 45 minutes – 1 hour).
– While the pumpkin is baking, bring marrow bones to a boil and let simmer for 10 minutes. When the marrow is ready, scoop the bones out with a slotted spoon and place in a bowl to drain. After they’ve cooled a bit use a butter knife to extract the marrow. Place it in a small bowl.
– Spoon marrow – but not the oil that has collected at the bottom of the bowl – in with the eggs, milk/coconut milk, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, salt and honey. Puree until smooth.
– When the pumpkin is cooked through, scoop out the flesh and add it to the egg mixture. Blend until smooth.
– Place mixture in ramekins or a large oven-safe dish and bake at 375. Custard placed in small ramekins should be ready in about 35-45 minutes. Large casserole dishes take about 45-minutes to an hour. Watch carefully and remove when it is set in the center.
– Serve with whipped cream if desired. [Credit: MommyPotamus.com]
