For an even richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular melted butter. If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Be careful not to overbake the custards, as they will become rubbery. They should still have a slight jiggle in the center when they are done. The water bath is crucial for even cooking and prevents the custards from cracking.
