Saving Money: Making Your Own Butter

In summary, making your own butter can save you up to 50% compared to store-bought butter, and the cost will depend on the price of ingredients. To make homemade butter, you will need heavy cream, salt, and a jar with a tight-fitting lid. The process takes about 10-15 minutes, but may take longer if using a hand-cranked churn or food processor. It is best to use heavy cream with a high fat content, but whipping cream or double cream can also be used. Homemade butter can last 2-3 weeks in the refrigerator and up to 6 months in the freezer if stored properly.

Making your own butter. Mix heavy whipping cream and a little bit of salt into a small electric mixer one from wm for less than $10 mix 3 min and you will have butter. If you want honey butter just add honey. Don't add alot of salt a little will do also if it doesn't seem to be making the butter add a little more salt and there you go. It's good and good for you. I refrigerate in our prep bowl.

Creating homemade foods is always the best. You control so many factors and usually for a lot less!
