Pumpkin Spice Butter (low FODMAP)

5 Minutes prep • 30 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Makes 2 cups • Ok to make-ahead: Steps 1 - 4

Pumpkin spice butter is the low FODMAP answer to apple butter — only better! This wonderful spread can be used as a delicious flavoring for other things (overnight oats for example), as a spread on toasted sourdough, mixed into vanilla ice cream, or incorporated into a cocktail. It’s oh so simple to make and it keeps nicely so you can have it on hand.

Ingredients

1 (15 ounce) can of pumpkin (I like Libby’s canned pumpkin)

2 1/2 tablespoons white wine (sauvignon blanc is a good choice)

1/4 cup real maple syrup

1/4 cup light brown sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt

Directions

(1) Mix: In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin, wine, maple syrup, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt.

(2) Cook: Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring often until the pumpkin thickens slightly, but is spreadable for about 20-30 minutes.

(3) Finish: Taste, adding more maple syrup if needed to sweeten or salt if needed to make the flavors pop a bit more.

(4) Serve: Remove from the heat and let cool (the pumpkin butter will thicken more as it cools). Use this pumpkin spice butter as a spread on toasted sourdough, as a key component of our pumpkin schmear, and as a foundation for our Great Pumpkin cocktail.

To store, transfer to glass jars and keep stored in the fridge for up to 1 month or in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months.
