What delicious fall flavour! I like it best with apple slices. This morning I stirred a generous tablespoon into a mug of coffee and added milk and sugar to make a yummy drink that was something like a pumpkin latte.

This Pumpkin butter is very good stuff! TBG uses it as a spread & we did too. It was quite tasty, reminiscent of apple butter. But I also served it as a dip with apple slices & those new apple cinnamon graham cracker sticks & that was where, IMO, the pumpkin butter really shone. I brought it to church & everyone really enjoyed it, with several requests for the recipe. As much as I enjoyed it, I may cut back on the sugar & spices next time to let the pumpkin flavor have just a bit more dominance. And I'm thinking I might try very finely chopped crystallized ginger in place of the ground ginger. Thanks for sharing this recipe, Bobbie!

I had never tried pumpkin butter before this - I have been missing out!! It's delicious on crisp bread and toast. I used homemade puréed cooked pumpkin which tends to be waterier than canned, so I omitted the water. I also didn't add the white sugar, just the brown, which I may decrease slightly next time. I loved how easy this was to make and will be making it again! Thanks for the recipe!!

Great!! For those of us that have to watch our sugars, I used splenda in place of the regular sugar and just a teaspoon of molasses. I omitted the water as well. Fantastic on whole wheat pumpkin muffins.

FABULOUS! Just like pumpkin pie, only 10 times healthier! I added extra of all the spices, especially cinnamon. It's a fabulous spread that will be perfect on toast or Graham crackers. So good on a rice cake with cinnamon sprinkled on top. Thanks!

This is my FAVORITE recipe for pumpkin butter. I started making this last year when I decided to cut back on my beloved (high fat and calorie) peanut butter. I spread this nice and THICK on a piece of toast and eat it for breakfast every morning, and I never get tired of it. I make mine slightly spicier than the recipe by rounding the little teaspoonsful instead of scraping them flat. Delicious stuff.

Delicious! Very quick and easy. It has just the right amount of spice. I was afriad it would be too spicy, but I love it. I made it exactly as the directions stated, and it turned out great. Not sure why others needed to omit the water. Mine turned out wonderful. I made this on Thanksgiving morning for breakfast. We ate it with pumpkin bread. I have tried another pumpkin butter recipe that is pumpkin mixed with butter and a few other ingredients. I like this better. I'm glad I found this recipe. I like apple butter so I was sure I'd like this. I will be taking it to my family's thanksgiving dinner and see how they all like it. Thanks so much for the recipe.

I tried this recipe just to use up some left over canned pumpkin. It is luscious! I halved the recipe and decreased the microwave time by a few minutes. It's very sweet, so I may cut the sugar a bit next time.

Wow! This is delicious! I followed the recipe exactly except I did omit the white sugar and it came out perfectly. I spread it over gluten free pumpkin pancakes and mixed a tsp into my coffee as another reviewer suggested. I will certainly be making this again and love the idea of giving it as gifts! Thank you!
