Keto Butter Board – #1 Delicious Low Carb Alternative
How to make a Keto Butter Board, the viral TikTok trend, but we are making it low carb!
If you are searching for butter boards, we’ve got you! Last week, we stumbled across the latest viral TikTok trend and became obsessed. Quickly realizing that the options and recipes shared are ALMOST low carb, we thought we’d share how to make a butter board keto friendly.
How to Make a Keto Butter Board
For anyone who is doing keto or a low carb diet, you know there are a few staple ingredients that are regularly used because not only are they low in carbohydrates but they are delicious too!
Butter is one of these staples and seeing that this is the base ingredient to these boards, we knew we could make an out of this world tasting version.
Here is how to make a keto butter board for your next party or meal. I made this and shared with my family. Yes, perhaps I forgot to tell them this was low carb.
Don’t miss all of our funny keto memes!
No one flenched and the keto butter board was eaten in no time!
As I mentioned in our butter boards post, these are the new charcuterie! Cheese boards and meat boards are so 2021. Let’s make a low carb butter board to show you exactly how easy this is to make (and delicious, too!)
Ingredients
We set out with a few ingredients in-hand and are set on showing you how to make a keto butter board.
Here is what you will need to get started.
- Butter
- Garlic
- Rosemary
- Feta Cheese
- Bacon Crumbles
- Flakey Salt
- Olive Oil
This sounds great, right? Perhaps you are wondering what we will be using to do the actual “dipping” with that is low carb. We got you! We toasted Sola bread, our favorite keto options to use to eat the buttery dish with.
Let’s Make a Low Carb Butter Board
Now that you have your ingredients and dipping item, here is how you make a low carb butter board.
Make sure that you have room temperature butter. The consistency of butter is weird. If it’s too hot, it’s a liquid, too cold – it’s a solid. If your butter is cold, leave it out on the counter for around an hour. You want it to be easily spreadable.
While I have seen most people lay out their butter boards in layers, here is another way our’s is different. We are creating a spreadable dip with the ingredients perfectly combined so that every time you dip your keto toast into it, you are enjoying a combination of all of the flavors of the ingredients.
Once you have room temperature butter, we are going to mix it with all of the above butter board ingredients to achieve this delicious delicacy.
Personally, I am using a Kitchenaid mixer to make my keto butter board. I use this often for many things (see our chicken shredder post! This is a game changer when it comes to making shredded chicken.)
Simply dump the properly measured ingredients (details below for specific amounts that I used) into your mixer and get mixing! As noted below, I am only using a half portion of the feta and bacon into the mixer, as the rest of these ingredients will be used to top the butter board.
Choosing a Plating Option
After you mix your ingredients, now comes time to plate. Let’s be honest, you could easily just eat this delicious keto recipe out of a bowl.
Since the butter board is a shareable dish, most people spread on a board used for charcuterie. For parties, I suggest a wooden lazy suzan. This allows movement and is a great shape when staging a table.
Another easy option for plating, is to simply use a pretty plate or platter. The decision is up to you, as this is totally an aesthetic thing and has nothing to do with taste!
Once plated, top your butter dip with the remaining feta cheese and bacon crumbles.
Let’s Make Some Toast
Here are our directions for making keto toast. It’s super easy. Other low carb dipping options include using a variety of keto vegetables.
Serve and Enjoy
Garnish and serve your dish with the toast and butter. I also found these almond flour crackers on Amazon. While I wouldn’t eat daily – they are 1 net carb each and compliment this low carb butter board well.
For specific measurements for the various ingredients, check below! Enjoy and we hope you and your guests (or family) love this as much as we do.
Keto Butter Board Recipe
We are jumping on the TikTok trend but making it low carb and keto friendly! Let's make this yummy keto butter board recipe using ingredients that are low carb friendly, as well as tasty.
This dish works great as an appetizer. It's also perfect for when you need to bring food to either a pot luck dinner or a picnic. Even though we have made it keto-friendly, it tastes just as good (if not better!) then many of the non-keto options available.
Enough chit chat, let's butter than board!
Ingredients
- 1 Stick of Kerry Gold Butter at Room Temperature
- 3/4 Clove of Garlic (or 1 tsp minced garlic)
- 1/2 Stem of Rosemary (personally used 2 small fresh stems)
- 1/3 Cup Feta Cheese (you will use half in mix and other half as topping)
- 1/3 Cup Crumbled Bacon (another option is bacon bits, again you will save half for topping)
- 1 Tsp Flakey Salt (this is optional)
- 1 Tsp Olive Oil (another optional ingredient)
- For Dipping
- 4 Slices of Sola Bread
- 2 Tbsp Butter
- Almond Flour Crackers (optional)
Instructions
- Take your room temperature butter and place in mixing bowl.
- Dump the following butter board ingredients: garlic, rosemary, salt and olive oil into the bowl with the butter.
- Using either a stand mixer, spatula, spoon or hand-mixer - blend together the ingredients and until smooth.
- Mix in half of the feta cheese and bacon crumbles (1/4 cup of each) into your bowl and stir together until adequately blended.
- Next, spread your butter mixture onto the board or plate of choice that you will be serving your keto butter board on.
- Let's now make keto toast. Using the sola bread, either toast in a toaster or butter and then toast in the oven 8 slices of sola bread.
- Cut the sola bread into half (I like to cut diagonally, making each piece of keto toast a triangle for aesthetic appeal.)
- Arrange toast around your keto butter board and serve!
Notes
Tips for Making a Keto Butter Board
While any butter will work, Kerry Gold is the best keto butter in our opinion. It tastes delicious and spreads perfectly.
Don't be afraid to try other dipping options other than bread. Low carb crackers and vegetables can also be used as foods to dip that are keto-friendly.
Make this keto butter board recipe your own! We are big here on ensuring that you tailor our keto recipes to include items that you love. If you aren't a fan of feta, either try a different low carb cheese or leave it out of the recipe. Same goes with bacon or any of the other ingredients used.
