From pumpkin and cinnamon to goat cheese and onion, the possibilities for a butter board are endless. So, here are five drooling butter board ideas to look for.
Pumpkin with brown butter
This pumpkin whip butter board idea is a creative spin on the current trend and the ideal autumn meal that will impress even the pickiest of guests. The flaky sea salt and walnuts add the proper amount of crunch, while hand-whipping the pumpkin butter mixture results in the optimal fluffy texture for spreading. Add bits of dark chocolate over top for even more sweetness.
Roasted Garlic and Chili
Everyone likes garlic, and this technique for roasting the cloves in the oven will give them the ideal, smooth texture that melts into the butter board. However, garlic paste will work nicely when combined with the butter to offer that delightfully tangy flavour if you’re short on time and need something quicker.
