Slow Cooker Pumpkin Butter

Originally from Pennsylvania Dutch Country, I grew up around lots of homemade goodies, either made by my family or within easy access. It wasn’t at all uncommon to shop from roadside stands set up alongside Amish and Mennonites farms, who often offered their homemade pies, cakes, sauces, fresh flowers, fresh produce, pickled and canned vegetables, and jams and jellies for sale. To this day, those trips to those makeshift “stores” are some of my fondest (and yummiest) childhood memories.
