Strawberry Butter Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • 8 small strawberries, stems removed and chopped
  • 1/4 cup honey

Instructions

  1. Crush Strawberries: In a medium bowl, use a potato masher to crush the strawberries until you get about 1/2 cup of mashed fruit. Set this aside for later use.
  2. Fluff Butter: Place the unsalted butter and a pinch of kosher salt into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times until the butter becomes light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure even mixing.
  3. Incorporate Strawberries: Add the mashed strawberries to the fluffy butter in the food processor. Pulse several more times until the strawberry pieces are evenly incorporated into the butter.
  4. Add Honey: Pour in the honey and pulse again until the mixture is uniformly blended and airy in texture.
  5. Store Properly: You can leave the strawberry butter out on the counter for a couple of days or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate until needed. Before serving, bring the butter to room temperature to restore its creamy spreadable consistency.

Notes

  • Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature to ensure smooth blending.
  • This strawberry butter is best enjoyed within a week if refrigerated.
  • Adjust honey quantity to taste for more or less sweetness.
  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and vibrant color.
  • Bring refrigerated butter to room temperature before serving for easier spreading.
