Instructions

Meanwhile, whisk egg yolks with cornstarch and remaining 1/4 cups sugar in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk about 1/2 cups milk mixture into the yolk mixture. Gradually whisk in remaining milk mixture. Return entire mixture to saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until bubbling in center, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Immediately whisk in pumpkin. Whisk in butter
Strain filling through a fine sieve into a clean bowl. Pour into gingersnap crust, smoothing the top with an offset spatula. Refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours. When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and nutmeg.
