This recipe is something that will be in my refrigerator in the Fall season from now on. It is so much better than apple sauce and regular apple butter.
It is pure, natural and so easy to make.
This spiced apple pumpkin butter is perfect as a spread (on muffins or toast), stirred into oatmeal or quinoa for breakfast, yummy on its own warmed up like a hot pudding or as a dip for fruit, proteins and would be beautiful baked on organic tofu.
It is so versatile and delicious. I highly recommend whipping up a batch of this apple pumpkin butter to have on hand to spice up your meals and snacks this Fall.
