Plus, it is so easy to make!ย  I used canned pumpkin puree but if you have your own pumpkin puree, even better!!ย  I used maple syrup to naturally sweeten this but you could also try honey.ย  You could also use about 1/2 to 3/4 cup sugar depending on how sweet you like it.

About this pumpkin butter:

  • Use a larger pan to help contain the splatter.ย  This pumpkin butter will splatter some when you are simmering and the taller sides will help.
  • This can make a wonderful homemade gift!ย  It’s ok if it’s not refrigeratedย for the time period you are gifting it.ย  Another great homemade sauce for gifts would be this salted caramel sauce!
  • This pumpkin butter will last for up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator!ย  Yay!ย  So, make a batch and enjoy it all through the fall.
  • My recipe makes about 2 cups worth of pumpkin butter.
