Ingredients
Scale
Butter Base
- 2 sticks butter (softened)
Toppings
- 5–8 strawberries (sliced)
- ¼ cup blueberries
- ¼ cup chopped walnuts
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
For Serving
- Whole wheat sandwich bread (warm, for serving)
Instructions
- Soften Butter: Allow the butter to come to room temperature so it softens but does not melt. Stir the butter in a bowl to loosen it and make it spreadable.
- Spread Butter on Board: Spread the softened butter over the entire surface of a small serving board, creating a swirl pattern if desired for visual appeal.
- Add Toppings: Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, and chopped walnuts evenly over the butter. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and sprinkle flaky sea salt on top, then drizzle honey over everything.
- Serve: Serve the butter board immediately alongside warm whole wheat sandwich bread for spreading and enjoying the combination of flavors.
Notes
- Use softened butter at room temperature for easy spreading; do not melt.
- Feel free to customize toppings with other fresh fruits, nuts, or herbs as preferred.
- The bread should be warm to enhance the flavor and texture when spreading the butter board toppings.
- This recipe is best served fresh to maintain the texture and flavor of the ingredients.
