Homemade Vegan Butter

Yields1 Serving

Making your own vegan butter couldn't get any easier. Homemade vegan butter is often made with nuts, but in this version, tender butter beans stand in to provide a creamy, nut-free texture and delicious taste.

Homemade vegan butter

 1 cup refined coconut oil, melted
 ½ cup canned butter beans, drained and rinsedor substitute canellini beans, or other white beans
 ½ cup unsweetened, non-dairy yogurt
 ⅓ cup olive oil
 2 teaspoons nutritional yeast
 1 teaspoon sugar
 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
 1 teaspoon salt
1

Place all the ingredients in a blender, then blend on high speed until very smooth. Pour the butter mixture into your choice of molds, such as a ceramic dish or mini loaf pans. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours.

This butter will soften at room temperature, so leave it out for a few minutes if you’d like a soft, spreadable product. Keep refrigerated and it will last several weeks.
