Ingredients

  • 250-300 grams roasted pumpkin (any type of sweet squash works: Cinderella or sweet pumpkin, butternut squash, etc.)
  • the juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup honey (60 grams), can be substituted with sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

You can adjust the sweetness of the butter depending on the sweetness of the pumpkin you’re working with!

  1. Purée the roasted pumpkin, add it to a pot, then add all the ingredients to the pot.
  2. Cook the mixture down, for 2-5 minutes, or until all the water has evaporated. The butter will go from a bright orange color to a light brown.
  3. Store the mixture in an airtight container, in the fridge, for up to 2-3 weeks.

You may have seen my work on TV, Food Network, NYT Cooking, Food52 and more. I make recipes more fun and accessible for home cooks. I immigrated to the US from Transylvania, Romania—where I lived most of my life—in 2021 to pursue my passion for cooking full-time. Here you’ll find a collection of approachable recipes, from weeknight dinners to desserts, you’ll come back to over and over again. Some of my most popular recipes include my chicken paprikash, orange chicken roast with fennel and shallots or butter beans all vodka. Some recipes are inspired by my Romanian-Hungarian upbringing, and most definitely all come with that Transylvanian resourcefulness! I love a good thrift, so make sure to catch my thrift hauls every Sunday on my Instagram!
