Welcome to Day 1 of your Advent Calendar! Make sure you’re subscribed to get your daily holiday recipe(s)… Expect each recipe to be quick, easy to whip up, and a fun way to spend a morning or afternoon. Instead of bringing a bottle of wine to a holiday dinner, perhaps bring a homemade delicious gift instead this year?
We are kicking off the advent calendar with 5 butter recipes: spiced, tangy, warm, herby, sweet and salty... and with a link to a special & flavorful *surprise*!
Whether you make it yourself or buy it at the store, butter is hands down the best vehicle for flavor customization. Although it’s great at any time of year, festive season calls for lots of cozy eats and gatherings. The 5 recipes below are my favorite combos of the moment that are sure to bring a smile your guests or to whoever may be hosting you.
Butter recipe is on page of The Condiment Book (UK). If you’re in the US/Canada you can officially pre-order your version (full photography + dozens of extra recipes) here!
All five of these seasonal butter recipes below can be adjusted based on amount - I’ve made them all for 1 cup worth of butter for the sake of ease! You can use a wooden spoon to really stir these up nicely and incorporate OR you can even put the ingredients in a small food processor.
Even though these are not technically “butters”, apple butter and chestnut spread are two other seasonal favorites of mine. You can find my apple butter recipe here and my chestnut spread recipe here.
