Vegan Butter

Surprisingly, vegan butter is super easy to make at home. It just takes a few oil-based ingredients and a bowl to mix them in!
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup almond milk or soy milk, unsweetened
  • 1/2 lemon for juicing
  • 1 cup refined coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 2 tablespoons coconut cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/16 teaspoon turmeric powder

Instructions 

  1. Add the juice of 1/2 of a lemon to the plant-based milk. Stir and let it sit for about 5 minutes to separate.
  2. Melt the coconut oil, but let it sit for a few minutes to come down from a hot temperature to more tepid/warm.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the coconut oil, avocado oil, coconut cream, salt and turmeric. Pour in the plant-based milk mixture and quickly begin to whisk everything together.
  4. Whisk for a few minutes (longer than you think!) until the mixture is smooth, emulsified and a pale yellow color.
  5. Cover this mixture and let it sit at room temperature for 20 minutes, whisk again, and let the mixture sit for another 20 minutes.
  6. By the end of the second 20 minutes, the mixture should be smooth and creamy. Move it to the storage container of your choice and store in the fridge. Use within 5-7 days!
