Fresh Spiced Pumpkin Dip is a sweet Fall treat and so versatile – use it as a dip or as a spread on toast ~ serve warm or cold !

This fresh Spiced Pumpkin Dip is one of my favorite dips of all time.

It is also so versatile, if we don’t use it as a dip, we spread the Spiced Pumpkin on toast – delicious breakfast !

I usually make a double, or even triple batch and place the leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Not sure how long it lasts, as we finish this delicious dip/spread within a day or two.

I prefer it served just warm to the touch as a dip, but spread cold on a slice of wholewheat brown toast.

You can also dry cook the Spiced Pumpkin to the degree of your preference.

Mine changes with each batch and sometimes I would remove some, to use as is, and continue to dry cook the remaining Pumpkin in the saucepan.

For the dip, I like it to be slightly syrupy.  More gooey with a light syrup which forms around the sides of the serving bowl.

That bit of syrup is amazing and to my meaning the best part – soak a cookie, bite and you’ll think you are in heaven!

Top with Chocolate Chips, if using, and serve with a variety of cookies and wafers. I like to serve the dip with mini Ginger Snap cookies and mini Tennis biscuits.
