Stop Buying Butter ~ Make Homemade Butter in 5 Minutes!

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Chill your mixing bowl in the freezer for about 10 minutes.

Pour 4 cups of cold heavy cream into the chilled mixing bowl.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the cream.

Using a hand mixer, mix on medium speed until the cream thickens.

Continue mixing until the cream separates into yellow solid (butter) and a milky liquid (buttermilk).

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap to prevent splattering and continue mixing until the butter separates from the buttermilk.

Carefully strain off the buttermilk into a bowl.

Squeeze out all the buttermilk from the butter and rinse it with cold water until the water runs out clear.

Shape the butter or store it in an airtight container.
