Oh, boy, does this look wonderful, Vonnie! I’d love a stash of your pumpkin butter in my fridge!
Mmmm… we made a batch of slow cooker pumpkin butter too for #pumpkinweek – I’ve never made it before but it is SO good on fresh baked biscuits! My son thinks it would make a good “frosting” for a pumpkin loaf or cake too. 🙂
I want to dive right in! This looks SO good. I am so going to make this. Thanks for participaing in #PumpkinWeek!
I bet this smells amazing while in the slow cooker! I have made apple butter before, but never pumpkin butter. YUM!
I have had pear butter and apple butter but never pumpkin butter. I can’t wait to try it.
Do you use 4 cups puree or 4 cups fresh cubed pumpkin? I must try this!
This sounds so good and so easy too! I think I’ll make some up to give as gifts! Thanks for sharing!!
I have never had pumpkin butter, This looks really good! I am going to have to try it!
