What is pumpkin butter made of?
Pumpkin butter is made of sugar and spice and pureed pumpkin.
Pumpkin Butter Ingredients
- pumpkin puree
- white and brown sugar
- cinnamon
- nutmeg

Can Pumpkin Butter be canned?
Home canning is not recommended for pumpkin butter because of the low acidity, even if you use a water bath.
However it can be easily preserved by freezing!
How to make Pumpkin Butter
The prep takes maybe 10 minutes (and that includes pulling out and dusting off the crockpot) and 3 to 3 1/2 hours cooking time. All you need to do is stir it once an hour to avoid scorching!
- Combine the ingredients in the crockpot.
- Cook on low for 3 – 3 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Place in a container and refrigerate or freeze.
How long does Slow Cooker Pumpkin Butter Recipe last?
When it’s cooled, ladle the butter into small jars and refrigerate. It will last two weeks in the fridge.
