Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)

½ cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature

¼ cup powdered sugar (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Zest of 1 lemon (optional, for extra zing)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Blueberries: If using fresh blueberries, gently rinse and pat dry. If using frozen, ensure they are completely thawed and drained of excess water.

    Cook the Blueberries: In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the blueberries and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to break down and release their juices. Once cooked, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

      Mash the Blueberries: Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the cooked blueberries until you reach your desired consistency (smooth or chunky). Let it cool completely.

        Mix the Butter: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and powdered sugar. Using an electric mixer or a wooden spoon, cream them together until it's light and fluffy.

          Add the Flavorings: To the butter mixture, add the mashed blueberries, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. If you're using the lemon zest, add that as well. Mix until everything is well combined and the color is beautifully swirled.

            Taste and Adjust: Taste the blueberry butter. If you prefer it sweeter, add more powdered sugar at this stage and mix again.

              Store the Butter: Transfer the blueberry butter to an airtight container or a small jar. You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. For longer storage, consider freezing it in portions.

                Serve: Spread this delightful blueberry butter on warm toast, muffins, pancakes, or waffles. It’s also wonderful paired with scones or as a topping for desserts!
