Fruit Butters

After trying and enjoying Cranberry pecan butter I decided that during my strawberry craze to try Strawberry butter.

I simply combined and refrigerated

1/2 cup margarine
2-4 Tbsp crushed strawberries

This complimented banana bread very nicely. It can also be used on pancakes, waffles, lemon loaf or poppy seed cake.

I like the idea of added some flavor to our margarine. If you make fruit butters or herb butter please send me the recipe I would love to try them.


This recipe freezes well (making it great for when company comes over) and can be great given in a small tin as a gift with some fresh baked scones or biscuits.

    Sounds great. I think I may try this with some organic butter. You are right this would be a nice gift.
