Best Vegan Butters

Earth’s Own Dairy-Free Butter Spread

“Creamy, flavourful, and well-seasoned; this is an excellent butter alternative for cooking. It’s my favourite for making toast because it spreads so beautifully and tastes so good! I also love that its palm-oil free, and locally made.” – Christine

Miyoko’s Organic Cultured Vegan Butter  

Rich, well-balanced, and remarkably buttery; this vegan butter is perfect for baking. It makes the best pie crust! I also love it on popcorn, as it has such a classic buttery flavour. Because it has no palm oil or food additives, I feel good about treating myself to this little luxury.
