Hope you are not sick of pumpkin stuff yet because here comes another one. I scoured the internet trying to find a simple pumpkin butter recipe and came up with this one. It tastes amazing, but is not pretty. It looks like a cross between hummus and curdled milk. But as I said, it tastes like all the wonders of Autumn. I just tried it on whole wheat toast and it made it wonderful.Pumpkin Butter
1/2 C butter, melted
1/2 C pumpkin
1/4 C powdered sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Whip the butter and pumpkin until creamy. Add the powdered sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Beat until combined. It does not look pretty but it really does taste great.
I have a few more recipes that I am going to try. Ones that make it kind of like apple butter. So I'll be back for more pumpkin fun soon!
Wondering if you processed them and how long. Thanksl Looks good and easy.
