Pumpkin Butter Magic: 6 Delicious Appetizers to Wow Your Guests 🍂✨

There’s something about pumpkin butter that feels like fall in a jar—sweet, spiced, and perfectly cozy. Around here, we love keeping a jar (or three!) on hand because it’s the secret ingredient that turns simple snacks into showstoppers.

If you’re planning a girls’ night, a holiday gathering, or just want a little “pumpkin spice moment” at home, these appetizer ideas are fun, festive, and oh-so-delicious. Bonus: they look as good as they taste (your charcuterie board will thank you!).

🥖 1. Pumpkin Butter & Goat Cheese Crostini

Think of this as autumn’s answer to bruschetta. Toasty baguette slices, a creamy swipe of goat cheese, and a dollop of pumpkin butter—finished with crunchy pecans or pepitas. It’s a one-bite wonder that disappears fast.

🥐 2. Mini Brie + Pumpkin Butter Bites

This one’s a boutique-favorite because it looks fancy but takes minutes. Puff pastry, brie, and pumpkin butter baked into little golden cups of melty goodness. Add a sprig of thyme or rosemary for a picture-perfect finish.

🧀 3. Pumpkin Butter Party Dip

Want to level up your grazing board? Whip pumpkin butter with cream cheese or mascarpone and serve with crackers, apple slices, and sharp cheeses. Sweet, creamy, and totally addictive.

🥨 4. Pumpkin Butter & Prosciutto Pinwheels

Roll up puff pastry with pumpkin butter and thin prosciutto, slice, and bake into swirly golden pinwheels. They’re buttery, savory, and the perfect little cocktail snack.

🍢 5. Roasted Butternut Skewers with Pumpkin Glaze

For something fresh and seasonal: roasted butternut squash cubes glazed in pumpkin butter + balsamic, skewered with fresh sage. Gorgeous on a platter and full of flavor.

🥗 6. Endive Boats with Pumpkin Butter & Blue Cheese

Light, crunchy, and gluten-free. Fill crisp endive leaves with pumpkin butter, sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles and walnuts, and drizzle with balsamic. Fancy, fast, and fabulous.

🍁 Why We’re Obsessed with Pumpkin Butter
