Yes, I know fall is still officially a few days away, but I'm starting to see the flavors of fall in the stores and I am loving it! I had already thought of making this week's tea sandwich with turkey and apple butter, but then I saw a jar of pumpkin butter in World Market and that sealed the deal.
This sandwich doesn't really have a recipe but rather just instructions for assembly. Slice pumpernickel bread. Spread both slices with a nice thick layer of pumpkin butter. Add roasted turkey to one slice and sandwich with the other. Simple foods really *can* be delicious, you know?
This Oregon Growers & Shippers Pumpkin Butter is the brand I found at World Market, and I love the pumpkin flavor as well as the smooth, creamy texture. I still may try this sandwich with apple butter, too. Are you a fan of fall-flavored butters? If so, what do you recommend?
Oh yes ! great combo.I love pumpkin butter.I first had it in Oak Glen an apple picking place near me.I's a fun place to go in the fall.

ReplyDeleteI would love to have you link this to Friends Sharing Tea!
ReplyDeleteMmm. That sounds lovely! It's good to have another way to use pumpkin butter, since I go through it so slowly all by myself. Funny, it doesn't work that way with the Rose's Key Lime Marmalade!
ReplyDeleteI also like recommend turkey with cranberry cream cheese.
I always buy a few jars of pumpkin butter at Trader Joe's when it appears in the fall. Apple butter is nice too, I need to make some more.
ReplyDeleteI just finished a jar of pumpkin butter used mostly on scones.
ReplyDeleteThis sandwich combination sounds yummy, I'll definitely be making some of these, especially with the pumpernickel.

I am very fond of apple butter- makes me think of Fall. I also
ReplyDeletelike pumpkin bread . Pumpkins and Indian corn are already in the grocery stores.
This is a great idea to welcome fall, Angela. Some of my best fall memories are from Missouri -
ReplyDeletethere are some wonderful fall festivals in towns, like Arrow Rock, Boonville and Hermann.
In Hermann, there are wineries, Octoberfest Celebrations &
charming Bed & Breakfasts -
I remember a 'Who-dun-it Mystery Weekend' that started off with clues at Friday night cocktails, continued on Saturday (the whole staff participated & even some 'guests' were part of the fun!), and everything was revealed at brunch on Sunday. The person who solved the mystery received a beautiful gift basket.
So bring on the cooler temperatures, the apple butter and the pumpkin butter...fall is here! Joanie
This sounds intriguing. I would try fig chutney for another fall flavor.
