Husband-Tested in Alice’s Kitchen
If you love the taste of pumpkin, you must make this sweet Pumpkin Butter. Once it’s done, use it to spread on your Sunday morning toast, use it to make a Pumpkin Smoothie or even a Pumpkin Latte (Recipes are on this blog.) Freeze the extra Pumpkin Butter in an ice cube tray so that you’ll have it handy for drop-in guests. Give a bit of the Pumpkin Butter as a hostess gift along with copies of the recipe when you attend parties. (Other ideas: put a bit of it in your oatmeal, layer a bit of with yogurt and granola for an autumn parfait.)
3 ½ cups pumpkin puree, or 1 (29 ounce) can (not pumpkin pie filling) (I used two 15 oz. cans of pumpkin puree.)
2 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup apple cider or juice (I used cider.)
1 cup packed brown sugar (I always use dark brown sugar.)
2 cinnamon sticks
1-2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice (to taste)
Combine pureed pumpkin, vanilla, apple juice, spices, cinnamon sticks and sugar in a large saucepan; stir well. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 - 40 minutes or until thickened. Stir frequently. Adjust spices to your taste

Since 1977, I’ve been testing recipes on my beloved husband. All of the recipes on my blog have been Husband-Tested in my kitchen using ingredients I purchase at our community-owned grocery store, Lost River Market & Deli and also at the Orange County HomeGrown Farmers Markets in the beautiful hills of South Central Indiana. I do this as a hobby on a volunteer basis. I LOVE TO COOK!
