A stunner of a recipe. I used my own homemade slow cooker applesauce and I cut the sugar in half. Very VERY good.

FAB recipe idea! I had to make some substitutions because of what I had "on hand". 2 -15oz. canned pumpkin, 4 cups of applesauce because I had no apple cider and added a bit extra to account for a little extra pumpkin. 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup raw honey, and added a tsp. of pumpkin pie spice because I had no nutmeg. I swear I ate a whole jars worth before I canned the rest! Thank you for an AMAZING recipe.

I haven't tried this yet but I was wondering since the apple cider was added would this be acidic enough to can? the usda doesn't recommend canning pumpkin butter since its too dense for the heat to kill all the botulism spores. does anyone know? I want to can this for family but I don't want to get them sick!!! maybe I'll can it and stick it in the freezer until its time to give it to them?

Delicious! I just cooked in on the stove and halved the recip & made the following substitutions: 1/2 cup canned pumpkin 1 cup applesauce (natural) 1/4 cup raw sugar Few sprinkles of cinnamon Fewer sprinkles of ground cloves I cooked it on slow on the stove, stirring occasionally. Perfect topping for our homemade wheat rolls on this autumn evening.

Wonderful smells fill your home. My neighbor admitted she opened her window so she could enjoy the simmering smells. Grab some friends and a food mill to cut down on prep time!

Wonderful! This was my first canning experiment, and it turned out perfectly. I doubled the recipe and got 10 Ball jars (8 oz) full. Probably would've gotten more if I hadn't kept "testing" it! It did splatter, so be careful, and use homemade applesauce if you can. Thank you to the recipe author for this keeper!

Excellent. I used 1/2C light brown sugar, as I like a lower sugar content. Excellent and rather easy.

Great recipe, make it even better with Apple NESTLÉ® JUICY JUICE® All Natural 100% Juice in place of the apple cider and it made it healthy and tasted great! Juicy juice bunch member

I tried this using homemade canned pumpkin and I had to let it cook out a little longer since the fresh pumpkin is I think a bit waterier than store bought. But it turned out delicious!
