How to Make Low Carb Crock Pot Pumpkin Butter

We have always LOVED pumpkin butter ever since we discovered our original Crock Pot Pumpkin Butter, It is super simple to make and a sweet treat our whole family loves. However, regular pumpkin butter is definitely NOT low carb. So we set out to make a low carb version and we were very pleased with the results.
Reheating Low Carb Crock Pot Pumpkin Butter is Necessary
Please note there is one major difference in how to handle leftovers with this low carb version. While you can eat the regular version hot or cold, our low carb version leftovers need to be reheated before eating due to the sugar substitutes. The sugar substitutes tend to crystalize when leftovers are refrigerated. However, you can just pop the portion you want to eat into the microwave and stir and it smooths right back out.
How to Serve Low Carb Crock Pot Pumpkin Butter
We enjoy low carb pumpkin butter on a toasted low carb tortilla, toast from our favorite low carb bread, lavash bread or biscuits made with Carbquik.
