Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 40 grams strawberries (fresh or frozen)
- 40 grams blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 40 grams raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Remove the unsalted butter from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature until it's soft and spreadable, about 10-15 minutes.
If using frozen berries, thaw them completely and pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, lightly mash the strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries with the back of a fork. You want to break the berries down slightly but still leave some texture and small pieces.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the softened butter, mashed berries, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Using a spatula or hand mixer, thoroughly combine the ingredients until the butter is evenly mixed and the berries are fully incorporated. The mixture should have a light pink or purple marbled appearance.
Spoon the Very Berry Butter onto a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll it into a log shape and twist the ends to secure. Alternatively, transfer the butter into a small container with a lid for storage.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the butter to firm up. Serve chilled or slightly softened at room temperature.
Store the Very Berry Butter in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
