Pumpkin Custard

Whisk together:
4 eggs
1.5 cups pumpkin
2.5 cups buttermilk
0.5 cup melted unsalted butter

Combine, then add to above:
1 cup sugar (original recipe says 1.5, but I reduced it)
1.5 cups flour
1.5 tsp. each baking powder and soda
0.5 tsp. each cinnamon, nutmeg, salt

Bake in a shallow 3 qt. buttered casserole (I used a 9x13 pyrex)
in a water bath 

400 degrees, 35-45 minutes

I like it a bit softer, so take it out before the center is completely
solid.
