It\u2019s actually the secret ingredient behind almost every dish on my family dinner nights. But I\u2019m not talking about store-bought garlic butter. Fresh herbs combined with butter, garlic, and just a pinch of salt are proof that homemade is better. In just 2 minutes, you\u2019ll have the BEST addition to any meal, from breakfast to dinner and even snacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Easy and quick. That\u2019s essential in my kitchen, just like this homemade garlic butter. I want all the flavor without the overcomplicated steps.

Since the butter is the star of the show here, I highly recommend splurging on a European Style butter with higher fat content. I use <strong>Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter Unsalted<\/strong>. It has a higher butterfat percentage (82%) than standard American butter, making it richer, creamier, and deeper yellow. It honestly tastes like liquid gold when softened! <strong>Land O&#8217;Lakes Unsalted Butter<\/strong> is another everyday option. This is a fantastic, reliable standard that is available everywhere and consistently delivers great results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-garlic\">Garlic<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fresh is best! I use <strong>fresh garlic<\/strong> cloves minced very finely or crushed for that punchy, aromatic kick. If you want a milder, more subtle flavour, you can swap this for garlic powder just use <strong>1 teaspoon<\/strong> instead of 4 fresh cloves. Just remember, garlic powder has a different vibe than fresh garlic. Fresh gives you that sharp, spicy bite, while powder gives you a warmer, toastier, and slightly nuttier garlic flavour. Both are delicious, just different! If you love it strong, feel free to use a <strong>heaping<\/strong> teaspoon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-parsley\">Parsley<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fresh flat leaf parsley adds a beautiful pop of colour and an earthy freshness that cuts through the richness of the butter. You can also use dried parsley if that is what you have in the pantry just use half the amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Note<\/strong>: For a full list of ingredients see the <a href=\"#recipe-card\" type=\"internal\" id=\"#recipe-card\">recipe card<\/a> below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make-garlic-butter\">How to Make Garlic Butter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Making homemade garlic butter couldn\u2019t be easier. Everything comes together in one bowl with a quick mix, no cooking required. Start with softened butter, then add your minced garlic, fresh herbs, and salt. Mix until smooth, creamy, and evenly combined. <strong>That\u2019s it, ready to use right away or store for later<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One thing I always pay attention to is the butter texture. It should be soft enough to mix easily, but not melted. If it\u2019s too cold, it won\u2019t combine properly, and you\u2019ll end up with chunks instead of a smooth spread. I usually leave it out at room temperature for a bit until it\u2019s perfectly soft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-203f3c05 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Garlic-Butter-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"a top down shot of a glass bowl sitting on a blue dark stone bench with butter and fresh herbs inside\" class=\"wp-image-115360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Garlic-Butter-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Garlic-Butter-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Garlic-Butter-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Garlic-Butter-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Garlic-Butter-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/cafedelites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Garlic-Butter-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list is-style-circle-number-list\">\n<li><strong>Soften the Butter<\/strong> Start with butter that is soft enough to poke your finger into easily.

If you don&#8217;t think you will use it all in that time, pop it in the freezer!<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1767140713074\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I freeze garlic butter?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, absolutely! Freezing is actually the best way to keep it fresh. I like to roll it into a log using plastic wrap or parchment paper, then twist the ends to seal it. It will last for up to <strong>3 months<\/strong> in the freezer. When you need some, just slice off a coin sized piece with a sharp knife and return the rest to the freezer. No need to thaw the whole block!<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1767140753791\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Should I use salted or unsalted butter?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">I always recommend using <strong>unsalted butter<\/strong> because it allows you to control the saltiness yourself. Different brands of salted butter have different sodium levels, so it can be risky! However, if you only have salted butter in your fridge, you can absolutely use it. Just <strong>omit the extra salt<\/strong> listed in the recipe ingredients, then taste and adjust at the end.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img

but a few small details make a big difference in flavor and texture.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span data-start=\"280\" data-end=\"499\" style=\"display: block;\">Use softened butter, not melted. If the butter is too cold, it won\u2019t mix properly and you\u2019ll end up with small lumps instead of a smooth, creamy spread. It should be soft enough to stir easily, but still hold its shape.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span data-start=\"501\" data-end=\"702\" style=\"display: block;\">Fresh garlic gives the best flavor here. It\u2019s stronger, cleaner, and blends much better into the butter than jarred garlic. If you prefer a milder garlic taste, start with less and adjust after mixing.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span data-start=\"704\" data-end=\"940\" style=\"display: block;\">Fresh herbs make the butter taste brighter and more balanced, but you can easily change them depending on what you\u2019re serving it with. Parsley keeps it classic, while rosemary, thyme, or oregano can give it a deeper, more savory flavor.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span data-start=\"942\" data-end=\"1136\" style=\"display: block;\">If you\u2019re using salted butter, leave out the extra salt at first and taste as you go. Some butters are saltier than others, so it\u2019s better to adjust at the end than overdo it from the beginning.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span data-start=\"1138\" data-end=\"1179\" style=\"display: block;\">A couple of extra things to keep in mind:<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"1181\" data-end=\"1287\">Let the garlic butter sit for 10\u201315 minutes before using if you want the flavors to blend a little more.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1289\" data-end=\"1375\">Chop the herbs finely so they mix evenly and don\u2019t make the butter harder to spread.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1377\" data-end=\"1465\">Store it in the fridge and let it soften slightly before serving for the best texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n\t<div
