Ingredients
Method
Step 1: Make the Vegan Buttermilk
- Combine the cold soy milk and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Step 2: Prepare the Coconut Oil
- Melt the refined coconut oil gently. Allow it to cool slightly so it is warm but not hot.
Step 3: Blend the Ingredients
- Add the vegan buttermilk, refined coconut oil, avocado oil, sunflower lecithin, salt, and turmeric to a blender.
- Blend on high speed for 60 to 90 seconds until completely smooth and creamy.
Step 4: Transfer to a Mold
- Pour the mixture into a silicone butter mold or parchment-lined container. Tap gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
Step 5: Chill the Butter
- Place in the freezer for 15 to 30 minutes.
- Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or until fully firm.
Step 6: Serve and Store
- Slice, spread, cook, or bake as desired. Store refrigerated in an airtight container.
Recipe Notes
- Always use refined coconut oil to avoid a strong coconut flavor.
- Sunflower lecithin helps prevent separation and creates a smoother texture.
- For a firmer baking butter, reduce the liquid oil slightly and increase lecithin.
- For a softer spreadable butter, increase the liquid oil and reduce the lecithin.
- The butter can be frozen for up to 4 months.
