Notes
🥡 STORAGE: Refrigerate the creamer in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Shake gently before each use as the spices will naturally settle.
♨️ REHEATING: Microwave: Warm in a microwave-safe container for 15-20 seconds.
Stovetop: Reheat in a small saucepan over low heat until warmed through.
❄️ FREEZING: Freezing is not recommended, as the texture may become grainy when thawed.
💡 TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS: Use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup to taste.
Add a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra warmth.
🍳 ALTERNATE COOKING METHODS: Microwave: Mix all ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second bursts, stirring between each burst, until warm.
