Ingredients
Unsalted butter – Of course, butter is the base of this pumpkin spice butter recipe. Just let it sit on the counter for about 30 minutes to soften before using.
Pumpkin puree – Make sure you’re using canned pumpkin puree! Canned pumpkin pie filling will change the whipped pumpkin butter’s flavor since it already has sweeteners and spices.
Light brown sugar – To sweeten our pumpkin flavored butter.
Ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and ground ginger – Feel free to use more or less of the spices, depending on your preference.
Ingredient Substitutions For Homemade Pumpkin Butter Recipe

Melted coconut butter
Want a vegan pumpkin pie spice butter spread? Substitute actual dairy butter with melted coconut butter! Whisk the pumpkin puree, spices, and sweetener first, then add the melted coconut butter.
Maple syrup
The caramel flavor notes from brown sugar are perfect for this pumpkin spice spread, but you can also sweeten it with maple syrup.
Tips For Making This Recipe
Add Salt
Skip the salted butter and just add the right amount of salt yourself. That touch of salt makes the pumpkin spice butter spread even more delicious!
Make Butter Pats
Serving whipped pumpkin butter for a crowd? Use a piping bag to pipe tablespoon-sized pats onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper, then chill until firm.
Form It into a Log
Use parchment paper to roll the pumpkin spice butter into a log, then twist the ends so it holds its shape. A compound butter log makes portioning easier!
