I’ve had my eye on making this Pumpkin Butter from Oh She Glows ever since I saw these delectable photos and became inspired. We finally had all the ingredients on hand and boy, was it Ah-MaZing!
The girls and I inhaled this! We used it as a dip for the enormous Honeycrisp apples we got from TJ’s. Honeycrisps are my favorite! We also smeared the butter all over our cinnamon rice cakes. So Yum!
Other than soaking the pecans and letting this chill in the fridge, total prep time is only 5 minutes.
Such a healthy treat with the warm and cozy flavors of fall.
Plus, a wonderful new addition to our family’s favorite recipes. Love!
