KETO 2.0 PLUS
SUGAR FREE BLUEBERRY BUTTER :
This is, without doubt, the best idea I ever had food wise. I was sitting writing a recipe for Blueberry Chaffles and was thinking about how great it would be to have them with Keto Sugar Free Blueberry Syrup.
When the idea flashed across my mind about infusing butter with blueberries and then slathering it onto blueberry chaffels (or anything else with blueberries, such as ice cream or blueberry crumble), and I had to come up with blueberry butter, so off I went for research and experiments and here is the end result.
We will probably have entire sections devoted to different types of infused butter as well as different aioli recipes as we go along, but here is blueberry butter to get things off to a good start.
Blueberry Butter
Ingredients
- 4 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- filtered water as needed, to thin
- 2 –4 TBSP maple syrup optional, for sweeter butter
Instructions
- Rinse the fresh blueberries and remove any stems.
- Add the blueberries to a high-speed blender or food processor with lemon juice and blend until the blueberries are completely broken down.
- Add the blueberries to a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a low-boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and allow blueberries to cook for 30 minutes, stirring at least every 5 minutes to prevent burning.
- Blueberry butter will thicken as it cooks down. Taste and add a little maple syrup, if desired, for sweeter butter. Blueberry butter is done when it coats your spoon when stirred and leaves open puddles on the saucepan.
- The butter will continue to thicken after you remove it from the stovetop. For thicker butter, cook a little longer. If your butter gets too thick, add filtered water in 1 TBSP increments to reach desired consistency.
- Cool the blueberry completely, then transfer it to glass airtight jars for storage. Store blueberry butter in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks. Serve with optional Apple Chips!
