Instructions
Mix together pumpkin purée, maple syrup (or other sweetener), and vanilla (if you are using it) in the crock-pot.
Cover, and cook on high for 4 hours or overnight on low for 8 hours.
In the last hour of cooking, add the cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg, and crack the lid to let moisture out if you want a thicker consistency.
Cool and store in jars at the bottom of your fridge.
