I’m definitely going to try this recipe. You hit all the right notes in your article and tests. I’m not vegan but find vegan food to be genuinely delicious, filling and cheap.

I do bake so a butter alternative has been a missing piece of the jigsaw.

And as a side note from a non-American, thank you for also using metric as well as ‘cups’. Most Americans don’t realise but ‘cups’ isn’t an exact measurement and differs between countries – the australian cup is slightly more than the US cup. So including gms and ml is really welcome. Thank you!

In reply to Constance. Hi Constance, unfortunately without the coconut oil the butter won't set.

I need to know if I can substitute any other oil instead of coconut? I don’t eat coconut, palm or soy products. thank you I really want to try this!

I made this butter twice now, used both soy milk and then almond milk along with refined coconut oil along with sunflower oil and everyone loved the taste. It does have a run off of liquid even though the taste is good. What is the cause of this run off?

A few comments after making this vegan butter…

1) It is not creamy or super buttery, as stated in the headline. But since having to go dairy free it is an acceptable alternative.

2) The consistency is hard and crumbly. It does not melt easily. Even on warm toast fresh out of the toaster, it is hard and won’t melt.

3) In comparison to the commercially manufactured vegan butters I’ve tried, even with it being hard, crumbly, and won’t melt, it is still better.

I will next try the version mentioned in this article that makes it spreadable and hope it works out. I may also increase the nutritional yeast to try for more flavor.

I will keep using this recipe because it’s the only alternative I’ve found that comes close to real butter.
