Scary, isn't it?
Making your own spread is super easy, and pretty frugal!
All you need is butter, canola oil, and something to whip it up with.
This is what a half-recipe looks like in a 15oz container. |
Another great thing is how easy it is to make!
Canola Oil & Butter Spread
What You Need:
1 cup butter, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup canola oil
What You Do:
- In a large bowl, whip up the butter until it is creamy and fluffy. (I use the whisk attachment on my Cuisinart stick blender, but a mixer will work fine.)
- Slowly beat in the canola oil, and beat another minute, or so. (It will look a little thin, but it will set up better after refrigeration.) If adding herbs, fold them in now.
- Spoon mixture into a smaller container and refrigerate for about an hour before using.
Enjoy!

I've been meaning to make my own spread, and you've made it sound easy. I like the idea of adding herbs. I've been substituting canola oil for part of the butter in recipes for a while now, and been happy with the results.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea subbing canola oil for part of the oil in recipes! I think I will start doing that! And this spread IS super easy to make. Once the butter is room temp., it takes less than 5 minutes! ;-)
