Description
This quick and easy pumpkin butter comes together in just 10 minutes using pantry staples. Warm, spiced, and naturally sweetened — it’s perfect for spreading on toast, swirling into oats, or gifting during fall.
Ingredients
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon coconut sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
Instructions
1. Add all ingredients except pumpkin puree into a microwave-safe bowl and mix well.
2. Microwave on high for 3 minutes.
3. Remove and stir in the pumpkin puree.
4. Microwave for another 5 minutes.
5. Stir again, let cool completely, and store.
Notes
For a creamier texture, replace water with unsweetened almond milk.
Use 1¼ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice as a shortcut.
Let cool completely before storing in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Great as a topping for oatmeal, pancakes, toast, or as a fruit dip.
