Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. If the butter softens too much at room temperature, simply return it to the refrigerator to restore its spreadable texture.
For a savory twist, try adding minced garlic, fresh herbs (such as chives or rosemary), or a pinch of sea salt during the mixing process.
For a sweeter variation, blend in a touch of honey, cinnamon, or vanilla extract.
Ensure the butter is properly softened before starting to avoid lumps in the final product.
Using a high-quality oil will significantly impact the flavor of the spread; choose one you enjoy!

Jan 17, 2025My butter didn't set properly, even after 3 hours. I ended up leaving it overnight and it was perfect the next day.
