Pumpkin Butter Recipe | Easy Homemade Spiced Pumpkin Spread

0 likes 0 reviews 36 views

Homemade Pumpkin Butter is a smooth, rich, and warmly spiced fruit spread made with pumpkin purée, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of ginger. Slowly simmered until thick and creamy, this cozy autumn favorite delivers the comforting flavors of pumpkin pie in an easy-to-spread form. Despite its name, pumpkin butter contains no dairy butter; its velvety texture comes from the concentrated pumpkin purée.

Perfect for fall breakfasts, holiday gatherings, and everyday treats, Pumpkin Butter tastes wonderful on toast, biscuits, pancakes, waffles, muffins, and scones. It can also be swirled into oatmeal, yogurt, or baked goods for extra pumpkin flavor. With simple ingredients and one saucepan, this homemade spread is an easy way to enjoy the warm, sweet, and aromatic taste of pumpkin season.

Cooking Method

Add the pumpkin purée, brown sugar, apple juice or water, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt to a medium saucepan.
Stir thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly combined.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently.
Reduce the heat to low and cook uncovered for 25–30 minutes, stirring regularly to prevent sticking and splattering.
Continue cooking until the mixture becomes thick, smooth, and spreadable.
Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract.
Taste and adjust the spices or sweetness if desired.
Remove from the heat and allow the pumpkin butter to cool.
Transfer to a clean container and refrigerate.
Serve on toast, biscuits, pancakes, waffles, muffins, or scones.
