Ketogenic Avocado Butter
Print Recipe
Even if you’re not on the ketogenic diet, avocado butter from Coconuts and Kettlebells by Noelle Tarr and Stefani Ruper has an endless number of uses and gives a delicious, flavorful kick to just about anything. Melt it on top of mashed cauliflower and cooked vegetables, or use it to finish grilled chicken or steak.
Ingredients
1 medium avocado, halved, peeled and pitted
¼ cup unsalted ghee, at room temperature
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1. Place all the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth.
2. Transfer the mixture to a sheet of parchment paper and form it into a log shape. Take an end of the parchment paper parallel to the log and pull it over so it covers the top of the log. Take the edge of the parchment paper and tuck it under the log, trimming the excess paper if necessary, and roll the log so it is encased in parchment paper. Twist the ends of the paper to make a large “Tootsie Roll.” Tighten the twists to pack the mixture together in the center if necessary.
3. Refrigerate the log until it solidifies, 3 to 4 hours.
4. To serve, simply unwrap the parchment paper and cut the log into slices. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
