Spicy Pumpkin Butter

 
It's that time of year again!  It's pumpkin season!  Here is a recipe for a deliciously spicy spread for toast on a chilly day!

Spicy Pumpkin Butter

In a crockpot, place:

3 large cans pumpkin, pureed
6 cups sugar (may substitute stevia and maple syrup)
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. allspice
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
4 - 6 cups water

Place all ingredients in large crockpot and whisk together until smooth. Place on low setting and cook until thick and creamy (about 24 hours). During the last hour or two, remove lid from crockpot to evaporate more of the liquid. Spoon into jars and lid until use.
