Description

Bacon-onion butter makes everything taste better. Try it on biscuits, a grilled cheese sandwich, crostini, roasted veggies, potatoes, grilled meats, or scrambled eggs.

Ingredients

3 slices bacon
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon dry onion soup mix

Directions

1 Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Allow to cool, then crumble.
2 Place softened butter in a small bowl and mash with a fork. Stir in the bacon and dry onion soup mix until well blended.
3 Store in an airtight container or transfer to a large piece of plastic wrap, form into a log, and wrap tightly, twisting the edges to seal. Keep refrigerated until serving.
