1. In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut cream, and maple syrup.
2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and warm the mixture, stirring frequently to ensure it does not scorch, for about 3-5 minutes until it is well combined and slightly heated.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and stir in the vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger powder, and salt.
4. Mix thoroughly until all the spices are well incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
5. Allow the pumpkin cream to cool slightly, then transfer it to a serving dish or airtight container.
6. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up the cream.
7. Once chilled, stir the cream to refresh its texture before serving. It can be used as a dessert topping, pie filling, or eaten on its own.
