Ingredients
Brown Sugar:
6 Tbsp
Pumpkin Purée:
1 29 oz can
Maple Syrup:
2 Tbsp
Apple Juice:
1/4 cup
Lemon Juice:
1 tsp
Pumpkin Pie Spice:
2 tsp
Cinnamon:
1/4 tsp
Sea Salt:
1/8 tsp
Vanilla Extract:
1/2 tsp
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan.
- The color will darken slightly as it simmers. Keep whisking to prevent burning.
- Once a smooth, thick texture is achieved with a deeper color, you’re done!
Simmer on low heat for 25 min, whisking often.
Notes
- It may seem like using pumpkin pie filling in a can is an easy substitute, but they add water and additional ingredients that don’t yield the same texture.
- Apple cider is a delicious substitute!
