- 2 cups Pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 1 cup Unsweetened apple sauce
- 3 tablespoons Pure maple syrup
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, apple sauce, and water over medium heat. Stir to mix thoroughly.
Add the maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt to the saucepan. Stir well to ensure all the spices are evenly distributed.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, to prevent sticking or burning.
Allow the mixture to cook for 25-30 minutes or until it thickens to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to ensure even heating.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Allow the pumpkin butter to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container.
