Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz soft spreadable butter with Canola Oil - we love Land O’Lakes
  • 4 tbsp garlic salt - or sub with 2 tbsp garlic powder and 1 tbsp salt
  • 2 tbsp dried parsley flakes
  • 2 tbsp red pepper flakes - adjust to your heat preference
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan

Equipment

  • Spoon
  • Measuring spoons
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Combine the butter, garlic salt, dried parsley, red pepper flakes, and grated parmesan in a bowl.
  2. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
  3. Serve with warm breads to add a delicious spicy flavor!

Notes

 
  • I usually scoop it right back into the butter tub for storing, no fancy containers needed.
  • Adjust the red pepper flakes to your liking. Start small and build up if you’re not sure.
  • This works great on breadsticks, dough balls, baked potatoes, or tossed with hot pasta.
  • Add a pinch of paprika or Italian seasoning for a twist.
 

Storage

  • Keep your spicy garlic butter in a sealed container in the fridge. It will stay fresh for about 10 days.
  • For longer storage, freeze in small portions using silicone molds or an ice cube tray. Pop one out whenever you need a burst of flavor!
