If fall is your favorite season, you are going to love these autumn-inspired healthy spread! These fall fruit butters are perfect on toast, as a dip for apples and topped on waffles or pancakes.
Traditional store-bought pumpkin, apple or fig spreads can be high in added processed sugars. While these homemade “butters” may still be considered a sweet treat, their main ingredients are packed with nutrition and coconut sugar also contains vitamins, minerals and is known to be low-glycemic!
Pumpkin is rich in beta-carotene, which is converted to Vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is good for eye, skin and immune health. Pumpkin is also high in fiber and water, so it is both hydrating and helps you feel full longer.
