Creamy Mint Butter Recipe

Mint-flavored butter, is that really a thing? Using mint in butters, breads, jellies, and candies were more popular in our grandparents time than in ours, but the taste is just as distinct and delicious now as it was then. This mint butter recipe uses freshly picked mint from the garden and a bit of lemon juice to give it an extra tang. You will find that it tastes great on fish, toast, and mashed potatoes. Homemade mint butter is incredibly easy to make and it is just one of the many compound butter recipes to feature fresh herbs from the garden. It may not be as versatile as a rosemary butter, but one taste is sure to spark new ideas for eating it up.
