Maple Syrup and Light Brown Sugar - For a smoky, caramel tone.
Cornflour - This helps to thicken the Custard.
Chai Spices - Cloves, Cardamom, Black Peppercorns, Cinnamon, Ginger Powder and Nutmeg.
Salt - A pinch always helps in sweet stuff.
Vanilla - A good quality one makes a real difference.

Tips to make the BEST Crustless Pumpkin Pie
Mix the Spices into the Cornflour to distribute them evenly.
There will be air bubbles in the mixture before baking so lightly bang the dish on the counter top first to remove them.
Allow the Pie to cool completely before serving.
Make with Pumpkin instead
You can use roast Pumpkin instead.
Use 1lb Pumpkin and 1 tablespoon Oil.
Peel, remove seeds and cut into chunks.
Brush over Oil.
Bake 40 - 50 minutes.
Puree till smooth.
This will keep well in the fridge for up to a week.
How to store/make ahead/freeze
This pie keeps well for up to 2 days in an airtight container on the countertop.
