Vegan Garlic and Herb Butter was a necessity. We love garlic, and we couldn’t enjoy pasta dishes or certain soups without a piece of garlic bread. Technically, we could have eaten them, but we really like having garlic bread with our pasta dishes. I mentioned in my previous post about vegan butter that once I had mastered vegan butter, it would be possible to make a compound garlic and herb butter that I could then use to make the garlic bread that all of us here at Patty Cake’s Pantry love.
I had linked to my garlic Parmesan butter recipe, but I realized that recipe contained cheese which is definitely not vegan.
After some experimentation, and a few failures, we finally came up with this recipe for Vegan Garlic and Herb Butter which makes delicious garlic bread. It’s also good as a spread for sandwiches, and even on crackers for a snack.
Just for the record, this is delicious on baked potatoes and other vegetables. It also makes amazing garlic bread. I have made garlic bread using this that I broiled, and I’ve also toasted it on a griddle. I’m sure it would work equally well on a grill, too.
