Pumpkin Butter
By :Instant Culinary Team
Nothing screams fall more than a sweet, delicious spread of pumpkin butter! We made ours with a local apple cider, which adds complexity to the final flavor. Feel free to add unique spices or other mixing liquid. This recipe only uses the sauté function. Do note, in order to reduce the pumpkin butter to the right consistency, the mixture will spew hot bubbles. We keep the lid of the pressure cooker over three-fourths of the top to keep anything from spraying! This makes about 3 cups of pumpkin butter.

Instructions
  1. Preheat the unit on Sauté – More/High for 15 Minutes. Place all ingredients inside in the inner pot and whisk until combined.
  2. Place the lid three-fourths over the pot, leave an inch of space for the steam to escape. You want to reduce the mixture, but also be careful since it will spew and bubble hot pumpkin! Stir the mixture every 2-3 Minutes to ensure it does not stick to the bottom of the pot. If you find any spots that are sticking, gently remove with your wooden spoon and stir to combine.
  3. Continue reducing for 5-8 Minutes, or until the pumpkin butter darkens in color and is the consistency of a thick paste. Transfer to a jar and allow to cool. Spread on top of breads, add to desserts, or eat on top of ice cream. Enjoy!
