Pumpkin Pie Spiced Pumpkin Butter Recipe

This easy Spiced pumpkin butter recipe is made using a can of pumpkin puree. This saves you time since you don’t have to roast a pumpkin and puree it before making the pumpkin butter. 

Spiced Pumpkin Butter Recipe - Enjoy your favorite fall spices in this homemade pumpkin butter. It is delicious served over ice cream, toast, and pancakes.

Guess what? Fall is very nearly here! While it isn’t official, and it is still hot here in Florida, I couldn’t resist diving into the pumpkin-flavored goodness since fall a little early this year. Truthfully, I keep a can or two of pumpkin puree in my pantry year-round. Not only is it good for you, but it tastes great in soups, pancakes, muffins, and more.

Today I made a quick and easy pumpkin butter full of good spices and sweeteners. I like to make my pumpkin butter rich with spices so I add in a little extra. This recipe is amazing on toast or drizzled over breakfast pancakes and french toast. You can even use it as a topping on vanilla ice cream or cakes.  

If you love pumpkin as I do, you have to give my recipe for Spiced Pumpkin Butter a try. This makes a small batch of pumpkin butter. If you want to make extra for gifting, you can double or triple this recipe.

Spiced Pumpkin Butter

You can use a 14.5 ounce can of pumpkin or 1 3/4 cup of homemade pumpkin puree.

Ingredients:

  • 1 3/4 cup or a 14.5 oz. can pumpkin puree
  • 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon cloves
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  2. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir frequently.
  3. Remove from burner and stir in vanilla. Cool completely then transfer to a jar with a tight-fitting lid.

This will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. If you think you won’t consume it all, you can put it in smaller 4 oz. mason jars to share with friends and neighbors. It makes a delicious homemade hostess gift throughout the fall season!

This Spiced Pumpkin Butter recipe makes a lovely gift.

    I wish I had followed the directions to the letter. I overdid it on the spices and had to add extra sugar. Your recipe was perfect, my execution of it was not.

    We love pumpkin butter! Looks easy enough that we could do it at home and I like that the recipe size isn’t so huge that you have to pull out the canning supplies and fill multiple jars if you don’t want to.

    I am co-hosting the #HomeMattersParty link party this month and would love to have you stop by for a visit. The next party opens at midnight Friday! http://www.alaynascreations.co

      Yes, it can, but it is usually done with much larger batches than this recipe.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
