More About This Recipe

  • Pumpkin baking season is about to make its exit – before we know it, we’ll be elbow-deep in winter root vegetables until the first thaw (a frightening thought, I know). But before we get all Debbie Downer, let’s not forget that there are ways of prolonging the yummy flavors of fall to keep us (and our taste buds) happy all winter long. Take this Slow Cooker Pumpkin Butter, for example. It’s unbelievably easy to make, requires only a few simple ingredients and can be canned or frozen and saved for when you need a pumpkin fix on a chilly day. Can’t wait until then? It also would make a great addition to those Pillsbury crescent rolls you’re thinking about serving on Thanksgiving. Just saying. There you have it – the perfect way to enjoy pumpkin all winter long!
