Title: Homemade Butter Substitute
Ingredients:
– 1 cup refined coconut oil
– 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
– 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
1. In a small bowl, mix together the unsweetened almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let this mixture sit for about 5 minutes to create a vegan buttermilk substitute.
2. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the refined coconut oil until it turns into a liquid. This usually takes about 30 seconds in the microwave, but make sure not to overheat it.
3. Once the coconut oil is melted, pour it into a blender along with the vegan buttermilk mixture. Add salt to the blender.
4. Blend the ingredients on high speed for about 30 seconds until everything is well combined and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
5. Pour the mixture into a glass jar or airtight container and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill for at least 2 hours or until it solidifies into a spreadable consistency.
6. Your homemade butter substitute is now ready to use! Spread it on toast, use it for baking, or melt it over vegetables for a dairy-free and flavorful option in your favorite recipes.
