Add the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, and brown sugar into the crock pot and mix well.
Stir in the apple cider, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt until fully combined.
Cover the crock pot with the lid slightly ajar to allow steam to escape and prevent excess moisture from building up.
Set the crock pot to low heat and cook for 5 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to prevent sticking or burning.
After 5 hours, stir in the vanilla extract and taste to adjust sweetness or spices, if necessary.
Let the pumpkin butter cool completely before transferring it to airtight jars or containers.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
