PUMPKIN BUTTER (COOKED)
This is a "more traditional" pumpkin butter recipe, since it is cooked. Its very yummy as a spread, or used as the pumpkin layer in "pumpkin cheese pie". In a fancy canning jar, it makes a tasty gift. (Cook time includes 10 minute water bath.) You can use Libby's "Solid Pack" canned pumpkin, or your own homemade pumpkin puree for this recipe.

Any publications preceding the Complete Guide to Home Canning (September 1994 revision) are considered out of date. (FYI posted on May 21, 2008)
