Spiced Christmas Butter
/Post by Jo @includingCake and Julie @realfoodsource
Looking for a great homemade recipe to turn into a little gift? How's about some homemade christmas butter! This ‘butter’ is fantastic drizzled over pancakes, melted over a sponge or even added to some oats and nuts to make a quick baked granola.
It's a really simple festive recipe that uses our melted coconut oil blended with Christmas spices along with our blitzed up dried cranberries. The recipe makes a small jar full but scale up as needed and you can add more or less sweetener to taste depending on how sweet and indulgent you want to make it! Jar up, share with friends and enjoy over the holidays!
P.s The recipe is featured in our Christmas Recipe ebook updated for Christmas 2014 and available to download for free in our store here.
