Tips to Make Pumpkin Butter:

1. Do Less Work! Use the slow cooker. You can do it faster on a stove but with the slow cooker you pour all the ingredients in and  set it and forget it! Go out shopping scroll TikTok and use the extra time for you!
2. Use your jar of pumpkin spice. Allot of recipes want you to add a bunch of spices but they are all in one jar with pumpkin spice blend. It may only take 5 minutes to find your spices and add it but that is five minutes you can stare at the ceiling and zen out!
3. Finally, make double and freeze the pumpkin butter for up to 6 months. This way you have it for your coffee, on toast, or even on ice cream!
