• Pour 1/2 c of mixture into small buttered baking cups, sprinkle pine nuts on top
• Place in a water bath
• Cover loosely with parchment paper and bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes (ceramic pot = pale custard, dutch oven = browned/carmelized custard)

• Loosen from the sides of the baking cups and turn over onto the serving dish. The pine nuts will then form a bottom "crust".
