My grandma made the best apple butter in the world. No, really in the whole entire world.
It does involve canning jars and peeling bushels of apples…so I have never made it.
Instead I developed this recipe for pumpkin butter. While it’s not grandma’s apple butter, it’s something I can make.
Here’s what I do.
Take one of those sugar free applesauce cups, you know on that comes in a 6 pack {I guess for school lunches.}
Empty the applesauce into a refrigerator container {Love the ones from Terrain}
Add about the same amount of canned 100% pumpkin {without the spices.}
Next add about 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.
Now top with sweetener of your choice…I used plain ol’ sugar…3/4 tablespoon. If you use another sweetener use the amount that would equal about 3/4 tablespoon. Add a little at a time and taste for your desired amount of sweet.
Stir this deliciousness up and spread on toast, muffins, pancakes or your fingers…it’s all good.
Seal your container and store in the fridge for up to two weeks…I guess, mine never lasts more than two days.
Yum!
