  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

Tips for Best Results

  • Use refined coconut oil so it doesn’t taste like coconut.
  • For salted butter, increase salt to ¾ teaspoon.
  • Keep refrigerated for up to 2 weeks or freeze for 3 months.

Optional Flavor Variations

  • Garlic herb: Add garlic powder + dried herbs
  • Honey-style: Add 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • Whipped butter: Re-blend after chilling with a splash of plant milk
