There’s something magical about the combination of pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and vanilla. While common during the fall, this flavor combination is delicious year-round. You’ll find this topping simple to make and yet complex in its flavor delivery on bread, pancakes, toast, or a variety of desserts. It’s truly scrumptious.

Ingredients

• 8 Tablespoons Butter, softened

• 3 Tablespoons Honey

• 3 Tablespoons Pumpkin Puree

• 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon

• 1/8 teaspoon Ginger

• 1/8 teaspoon Cloves

• 1/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt

• 1 teaspoon Vanilla paste (or extract)

 

Method

1. Start by softening the butter, preferably overnight.

2. Combine all of the ingredients into a mixing bowl and whip using a hand mixer so that it all comes together, nice and smooth.  Beat the mixture thoroughly so that you can incorporate some air into it and “whip” it up a little.

3. Serve this delectable spread over bread, pancakes, waffles, toast, french toast, or any number of desserts.  

4. Store in the refrigerator.  You can also save some for the extended future in the freezer, if you’d like.
