Homemade Butter! Just 1 Ingredient!

Pour the heavy cream into the bowl of a stand mixer, or you can use a hand mixer if you don’t have a stand mixer.

Whip the Cream:

Start mixing on low speed, gradually increasing to medium-high. As you whip, the cream will go through various stages: first becoming whipped cream, then separating into butter and buttermilk.

Separate the Butter:

Continue mixing until you notice the cream separating into butter (solid chunks) and buttermilk (liquid). This process can take anywhere from 8-10 minutes, depending on the speed of your mixer.

Strain the Buttermilk:

Once the butter has formed, strain off the buttermilk using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth. You can save the buttermilk for baking or cooking if desired.

Wash the Butter:

To remove any remaining buttermilk, pour a small amount of cold water over the butter and knead it gently with a spatula or your hands. Repeat this step a few times until the water runs clear.

Season (Optional):

If you like, you can add a pinch of salt to taste and mix it in.

Store the Butter:

Transfer the homemade butter to a container and refrigerate. It will keep for about a week in the fridge.
