Spiced Pumpkin Butter
Making your own Spiced Pumpkin Butter is a snap, and you can do it for just a fraction of the cost of store-bought. It’s wonderful spread on toast or muffins, or added to your coffee, hot chocolate, or oatmeal!
I might have mentioned before how much I love Williams-Sonoma and all of their cooking gadgets and (un)necessities. And this time of year, they sell a magnificent jarred pecan pumpkin butter. But at the rate that I can consume it, I’d need a small loan to fund myself through the season. Not only that, but I have this thing about making things from scratch.
You know, that thing where you tell yourself that the calories don’t count if it’s home baked versus purchased at a store or restaurant?
Mmm-hmm. These calories soooooo don’t count.
You’re probably wondering why there are chocolate chips and a loaf of pumpkin bread riding sidekick in these photos. That’s because I used this spiced pumpkin butter to make the pumpkin bread, and it’s pretty much the best thing ever {recipe coming soon!}.
All you need are just a few ingredients and half an hour to make gourmet-tasting pumpkin butter at home, for just a fraction of what you would pay at the store. Then spread it on bread, over yogurt and granola, in oatmeal, or on pancakes.
Or eat with a spoon.
- 1 15-ounce can pumpkin puree (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
- ½ cup spiced apple cider (or apple juice)
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup pecan pieces (optional)
- Bring all ingredients to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool completely, then spread on bread, over yogurt and granola, in oatmeal, or on pancakes.
- Or eat with a spoon.

Hello There!
Interestingly enough, I didn’t grow up with an interest in cooking. In fact, I informed my mother on multiple occasions that I was not getting an advanced education so I could spend my evenings preparing meals.
