Preheat your oven to 325Β°F (163Β°C). Prepare six 6-ounce ramekins and a large baking dish that can hold them.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, heavy cream, brown sugar, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.
Divide the custard mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins.
Place the ramekins in a large baking dish and carefully pour hot water into the baking dish, filling it halfway up the sides of the ramekins to create a water bath.
Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the custards are set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Carefully remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature. Then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled.
Serve the custards with a dollop of whipped cream on top and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon if desired.
