  1. This sounds like such a great idea… i’m just a little skeptical because i absolutely HATE raw pumpkin! (i know, i’m crazy) i remember you mentioned that you werent a huge fan of pumpkin either so i may have to try it!

    • Emily-
      Yeah, I’m not a huge pumpkin fan. I think this pumpkin walnut butter tastes bests on prepared sweets/breakfasts… I bought these gluten-free waffles from the grocery store and spread some of this on and it was DELICIOUS! The waffles had a hint of cinnamon in them so they matched perfectly.
      It’s also good in oatmeal with some pure maple syrup. Mmmmmm 🙂

  2. Ooooh pumpkin, cinnamon, and walnuts! This sounds oh so tasty!

  3. This might even be good in a protein smoothie, I will have to try it!

  4. I love your blog name! So creative. This pumpkin butter sounds delish.

  5. I’ve never tried walnut butter but I’ve always been curious about how it tastes. I love the addition of pumpkin in here and this looks like such a great fall treat!

  6. This sounds SO amazing. Pinning and making ASAP!

  7. This looks and sounds sooo delicious! What a brilliant flavor combination. 🙂

  9. will this work without the syrup?

    • I’m sure it’ll work out just fine, you just won’t get any of the spices or sweetness that’s meant to come from the syrup. I would recommend using 1+1/4 cups of pumpkin instead of 3/4 cup, and adding 1-2 tsp of cinnamon (to taste), 1/16 tsp salt, and ~1/2-1 tsp of stevia extract or ~⅓ cup of pure maple syrup (again, to taste). You can always play around with whatever flavors you like 🙂 You can add pumpkin pie spice or nutmeg, you can use sea salt or pink himalayan salt, etc. Hope you like the recipe!

  10. Just wanted to let you know that I made this butter (using psyllium husk powder (2 tsp.) in the syrup instead of xanthum gum) and it turned out beautifully! Great recipe, girl! Thanks! <35 stars

  15. Made this and substituted the butterscotch with a more readily found caramel… still AMAZING but I think I would love even more the butterscotch flavoring. Also, after it was made I just started throwing in little additional random amounts of cinnamon, pumpkin spice, and a little of the SF caramel syrup, but who measures anything in the end…. 😉
    DIVINE recipe- I could (and very well may) eat the whole jar!5 stars
