Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 226 grams unsalted butter (softened)
- 120 grams fresh or frozen mixed berries (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 50 grams powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
Place the softened unsalted butter in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw completely and drain off excess liquid. Pat the berries dry with a paper towel to prevent the butter from becoming too watery.
In a small blender or food processor, puree the mixed berries until smooth. You can also mash them by hand with a fork if you prefer a chunkier texture.
Add the berry puree, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and optional lemon zest to the butter in the mixing bowl.
Use a hand mixer or a wooden spoon to mix everything together until fully incorporated. The butter should be smooth and evenly colored with fruit swirls.
Transfer the sweet and fruity butter to an airtight container or gently shape it into a log using parchment paper for a professional look.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the butter to firm up before serving.
Spread on your favorite bread, pastries, or breakfast items and enjoy!
