What is Pumpkin Butter and What Do I Use it With??

Pumpkin butter is one of my favorite things to have on hand during the fall! You can use it so many ways and it is absolutely delicious. Some of us could even eat it by a spoonful… it’s THAT good. Pumpkin butter is made with all of the yummiest fall spices and of course, pumpkin puree. So it’s a great thing to make at the beginning of fall and use it throughout the month in different recipes. And when you run out, it’s super easy to make again! There are so many things that you can use this on! One of my very favorite things is french toast! French toast is already so delicious but adds on a topping that is creamy, thick, and melts in your mouth? This will take it to the next level! You can also use this when you make pumpkin bread. Your pumpkin bread will already have pumpkin flavoring but substitute this butter for regular butter and you have double that yummy fall taste! The last thing that I love to put this in is yogurt. Add this on top of some vanilla yogurt and add in some granola. It’s the perfect snack or breakfast!

Ground cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves: These are the “standard” Fall ingredients that you will see in a lot of pumpkin based recipes!
