Corn Butter

 I like to make corn butter as a substitute for real butter. I am a vegan (also lactose intolerant) and so here is what I use instead of butter!

Corn butter
1/4 c. corn FLOUR *
1 cup water
1/2 t. salt
1/2 c. water
1 T. nutritional yeast flakes
other seasonings (garlic, onion, mckays chicken, etc.)

1. simmer cornmeal in one cup water i na small pot on stove until soct and water is absorbed.
Blenderize hot cornmeal with remaining ingredients until very smooth. Pour mixture into a container. Cover and chill until firm.

It makes a really nice spread. It's cheap and easy to find the ingredients for.  I hope you enjoy. This is a half recipe by the way and this is a very easy recipe to double.

*corn flour is not cornmeal. corn flour has the texture of flour, not gritty like cornmeal. this makes more of a smooth spread.

    1. You won't fool the person telling them that it's butter, but it does make for a nice bread spread. :)
