Vegan Butter Substitute


You won't believe how creamy, melt-in-your-mouth smooth this vegan butter substitute is. It spreads on toast like buttah! (recipe from The Homemade Vegan Pantry by Miyoko Schrinner)

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 c. melted refined coconut oil (not extra virgin coconut oil)
  • 1/2 c. nondairy milk (unsweetened)
  • 1/4 c. canola, grapeseed, or light olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 2 teaspoons liquid lecithin (if using granules, you will need 2-4xs the amount)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Place all the ingredients in a blender and process at medium speed for about 1 minute.
  2. Pour into container of choice–something made of silicone is great, as it will pop out easily, but any storage container will do (line it with wax paper first for easy removal).
  3. Set it in the refrigerator for a few hours until hard or in the freezer to expedite hardening.
