Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar, divided |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 3/4 cups 1% low-fat milk |
1 large egg |
1/2 cup canned unsweetened pumpkin |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
cooking spray |
1/4 cup chopped walnuts |

1/4 cup heavy whipping cream |
Directions:
1. Combine 6 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons cornstarch in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Combine milk and egg, stirring well with a whisk. Gradually add milk mixture to sugar mixture, stirring constantly, and bring to a boil. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. 2. Combine pumpkin and the next 4 ingredients (through ground nutmeg) in a bowl, stirring well. Slowly add pumpkin mixture to milk mixture, whisking constantly. Place pan over low heat, and cook for 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring constantly (do not boil). Divide pudding evenly among 4 dessert bowls, and cover surface of pudding with plastic wrap. Chill. 3. Line a baking sheet with foil, and coat foil with cooking spray.
