Pumpkin Maple Cream Cheese

My husband loves this on pancakes... I love it on a bagel... www.slenderkitchen.com
I double this recipe because it disappears so quickly.. Hope you enjoy


Today’s recipe is a simple but delicious one that pairs perfectly with bagels, wraps, waffles, and breads and is a better alternative than store bought pumpkin cream cheese. All you have to do is whip together your favorite store bought cream cheese with pumpkin puree, a touch of maple syrup, and some pumpkin pie spice. Alternatively you can replace the pumpkin with a quarter cup pureed butternut squash, apple butter, cranberry butter, or cooked and pureed pears for an equally yummy, pumpkin free version. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge and it should last about one week.
