Description

This vegan butter takes just four simple ingredients (including salt!), a blender, an immersion blender, and minimal hands-on time. No churning and no melting required! It's creamy, buttery, made without added preservatives, and totally vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and refined sugar-free!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3/4 cup refined coconut oil, solid at room temperature (not melted)
  • 1 1/4 cups avocado oil, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup plain unsweetened almond milk, cold (I use Malk)
  • 3/4 teaspoon fine salt

Instructions

  1. Add the refined coconut oil, avocado oil, almond milk and salt to a high-speed blender. Blend for about 1 minute, until smooth and creamy.
  2. Pour the mixture into a glass jar or airtight container and refrigerate.
  3. After 30-60 minutes, check the mixture. If it has separated or is solidifying unevenly, insert an immersion blender right in the same jar you store it in (This is the one I love to use) and pulse a few times until smooth and fully incorporated.
  4. Return to the refrigerator and chill overnight, until completely solid.
  5. Serve directly from the refrigerator, or let stand at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to soften for easier spreading.

Notes

Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. It spreads right from the fridge and softens significantly at room temperature. Left somewhere warm, it can eventually become liquid!

Freezing: For longer storage, freeze in individual portions (you can freeze it right in silicone butter molds). Thaw in the refrigerator before using.
