About

When I think of fall many things come to mind; cold crisp weather, colourful leaves, warm hearty meals, and of course pumpkin pie. I can’t get enough of the thick creamy texture and spicy flavour of this fall favourite. Rather than indulging in copious amounts of pie I decided to give everything pumpkin pie flavour without all the calories. How is this possible?? Pumpkin butter!
