In case you haven’t heard, butter boards are the new charcuterie boards. The TikTok trend has gone completely viral and as butter lovers we are not at all mad! The beauty of such a board is that it is totally open to your flavor interpretation and the possibilities are endless. Here are some combinations that you should definitely try.
Flavors of Fall
With autumn in the air, why not take advantage of its awesome flavors? Layer your softened butter with some toasted pumpkin seeds for crunch, a bit of pumpkin spice, some orange zest, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and lots of flaky sea salt.
Italian Inspiration
Roasted garlic gives this board its pungency, while toasted pine nuts add crunch, and herbs like basil, coriander, and oregano keep it fresh. You can also add some lemon zest for brightness, or a fig jam to bring in something sweet.
Everything But the Bagel
If butter is not your thing, feel free to swap out the spread for a creamy ricotta. Top it with sliced red onion, capers, lemon zest, slivers of smoked salmon, and loads of fresh black pepper.
Peanut Power
The best butter boards are a combination of sweet and salty, but who says you can’t go sweet all the way? Spread some peanut butter and layer on chocolate chips, caramelized nuts, mini marshmallows, and drizzle of honey.
