Notes

Expert Tips & Storing 
  • Experiment with sweeteners: maple syrup or coconut sugar are great alternatives to brown sugar.
  • Don't rush the cooking process; a low, steady heat ensures a beautifully thickened butter.
  • Add a dash of lemon juice or vanilla extract for an extra layer of flavor complexity.
  • In an airtight container in the fridge, it should stay fresh for up to 2-3 weeks. Pumpkin butter freezes well; just ensure it's in a freezer-friendly container for longer storage.
