Easy Homemade Butter Recipe

Homemade butter is a very easy recipe to make, I know some people might think otherwise until they read the instruction below. To be honest I don’t usually make butter because sometimes the heavy cream price is higher than the butter price, so it doesn’t make sense. But whenever I have a bargain on the heavy whipping cream I quickly grab it…lol. To make butter is easy as I stated before, you can make it in a jar but know that if you’re using a jar that’s going to be your work out for that day, there’ no need to go to the gym again…lol. To make it in a jar all you need to do is shake, shake, shake until the liquid (buttermilk) separates from the butter.

If you have a stainless steel arm like me you can use a blender or a food processor the result is the same with no stress. When you’re done you can mix some herbs, and salt (if you wish) with your butter and spread on a slice of bread. You can use the buttermilk in baking, waffle or Fluffy Buttermilk Pancake

    Thank you, Aliyah! I tried the butter but I was scared because I didn’t know if it was going to turn out well so I made just small jar but to to my surprise it came out well.
