Flavouring Butters

By flavouring butter,  you are able to enhance the food you are serving.  What I have here are three butters used for Breakfast fare such as pancakes or french toast etc. They can also be used for scones or muffins.

They are wonderful and I hope you will try them out. They all keep well in the refrigerator.

Orange Butter

• 1/2 cup softened butter
• 2 tbsp. concentrated orange juice
• 2 tsp. icing sugar
• 1 tsp. grated fresh ginger

In a small bowl, beat the butter until fluffy.  Add the rest of the ingredients and beat until well blended.  Place in a covered container and keep in the refrigerator.

Honey Cinnamon Butter

•  1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup softened butter
• 1 tsp. ground cinnamon

Beat all in a small bowl and place in a covered container in the refrigerator.

To change the flavours, you can opt out for nutmeg or ground ginger. All I can say is yum yum!

Nut Butter

I know there are allergies to nuts BUT my grandaughter has severe allergies but can eat almonds. So adjust any nut if you can avoid any problems. Try walnuts, hazelnuts or almonds.

• 1/2 cup softened butter
• 1 tbsp. icing sugar
• 1 tsp pure vanilla

Blend in a small bowl, combine the butter and nuts. Blend in the sugar and vanilla.  Place in a covered container and keep in the refrigerator. This butter is soooo good with muffins and scones.
