Fresh Berry Butter
Got berries that need to be used up? Make this easy and delicious berry butter! Perfect for toast, bagels and even muffins.
Ingredients
- 1/4 c mashed strawberries
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1/2 c butter, softened
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients. Mash your strawberries in a separate bowl and measure them out. Pour the berries into a small bowl and add the lemon juice and sugar. Whisk or stir them with a small spatula until the sugar has dissolved.
- In a medium bowl, cream your butter until it is soft and not lumpy. Add the strawberries and mix again until combined. (Depending on the temperature of your strawberries and butter, it might take a little longer to combine.)
- Scoop the berry butter into a container and serve on bread, bagels or even a muffin!
- Store covered in the fridge when not being used and let soften before spreading.
