Mix well to combine the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
Add in the garlic powder, onion powder, nutmeg, salt, and ground black pepper.
Continue to stir, ensuring that all the spices are evenly distributed throughout the pumpkin mix.
Let the mixture simmer gently for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.
