Creating Healthy Homemade Vegan Pumpkin Spice Syrup is simple and straightforward. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan, add the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, water, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
2. Mix Well: Stir the mixture until everything is well combined and smooth.
3. Heat: Place the saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring frequently.
4. Simmer: Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld together.
5. Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a thinner syrup, add a bit more water until you reach your desired consistency.
6. Strain (optional): If you want a smoother syrup, you can strain it through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any solids.
7. Cool: Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the syrup cool down to room temperature.
8. Store: Transfer the cooled syrup into a glass jar or bottle and store it in the refrigerator. It will keep for about two weeks.

Following these steps, you’ll have a delicious and fresh vegan pumpkin spice syrup ready to elevate your meals!
