Pumpkin Butter

Pumpkin butter, like apple butter and just plain old butter is a great fall treat. Certainly good with breads, in our house it almost always ends up in a Pumpkin Divine.

Pumpkin Butter

1 (29 oz) can pumpkin puree

3/4 c apple juice

2 tsp ground ginger

1/2 tsp ground cloves

1 1/2 c sugar

2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp nutmeg

1) Combine pumpkin, apple juice, spices and sugar in a saucepan, stirring. Bring mixture to boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for half an hour. You will want to stir often to avoid bubbly splatters!

2) Store, refrigerated, in a clean container.
