Maple syrup, pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spice, and vegan butter

How to Make Pumpkin-Spiced Maple Butter

This CREAMY, fluffy fall delight begins with simmering maple syrup and pumpkin purée to create a pumpkin-maple reduction. It then gets a generous dose of pumpkin pie spice. Oh yes, we went there!

After letting the mixture cool, the pumpkin-maple reduction is ready to whip with vegan butter until super light and fluffy!

For an oil-free version, you can use cashew butter for a slightly different but equally delicious result.

Does it keep? 2 Weeks

  • 1/2 cup light (amber) maple syrup*
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin purée
  • 1 ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup softened vegan butter (we like Miyoko’s // or sub raw cashew butter for an oil-free version — results will be different but equally delicious!)
  • Add the maple syrup and pumpkin purée to a small saucepan. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it comes to a light boil, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to medium-low and bring it to a simmer. Continue cooking until the mixture has reduced by about half (~5-8 minutes). It should coat the back of a spoon without running down the sides — the texture should look like thick caramel sauce.

  • Once thickened, remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the pumpkin pie spice. Pour the maple/pumpkin sauce into a heat-safe bowl. Cool the sauce in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes until it is cold and has thickened further.

  • Once the maple/pumpkin sauce has cooled, remove it from the refrigerator and set aside.

  • To a medium mixing bowl add the softened vegan butter. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter on high for about 30 seconds. Then add in the maple/pumpkin sauce and beat again until very light and fluffy. Spoon the maple pumpkin butter into an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

  • It’s delicious on pancakes and waffles, a fresh biscuit, or a slice of toast!

*Light (amber) maple syrup provides the best flavor, but dark maple syrup is okay, too.
*Recipe as written makes ~2/3 cup.
*Nutrition information is a rough estimate.
*Inspired by Trader Joe’s maple butter.
