Crockpot Pumpkin Butter

What You Do:

Bummed that you can’t can it but since I still haven’t started canning, I might have to make a smaller batch!! YUM! This sounds so tasty and I have everything in the house right now. If the kitchen wasn’t trashed from a day of making chicken broth, lasagna and dinner for the week…I might have gone and started the crock pot tonight!! Thanks for the post!
This sounds good. What do you put it on?
Hi Michelle, It’s great on toast or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. It’s also a great mix in for yogurt and oatmeal, and you can add it to baked goods, too.
My comment is on the crock pot applesauce that you posted last month on My Frugal Home. Mine turned out delicious and I will make this recipe again, and soon became my first batch is nearly gone!
Thank you Erin for all of the great ideas and recipes that you so generously give us each month.
Glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe 🙂
