One of my favorite things about the holiday season is that it’s a perfect excuse to indulge in my favorite pie – pumpkin. But this apple butter pumpkin pie is even better. It’s sure to satisfy those who love traditional pumpkin pie and as well as those who want just a little extra flavor.

There’s something about pumpkin that just screams fall. Maybe it’s because pumpkin pie is so often a Thanksgiving and Christmas dessert staple. But give me something pumpkin flavored or scented and I’m a happy girl. And the reason I love this particular recipe is because I’m a huge lover of apple butter. It makes everything taste better.
In my part of the world, pumpkins grow abundantly and it’s easy to get fresh pumpkins. However, for those of us who’d rather save the real pumpkins for decorations this apple butter pumpkin pie starts with canned…making it easy as pie.
