- 1/3 cup apple cider

- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions
- In a large saucepan, combine the pumpkin purée, apple cider, sugar, maple syrup, lemon juice, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring regularly.
- Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan.
- Stir regularly to keep the pumpkin butter from sticking or burning, and continue to cook until thickened. This will take about 20-25 minutes.
- Remove from heat, and let it cool completely.
- Once cool, transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator.
