Best Marmalade Butter Recipes

MARMALADE & WHISKY BREAD & BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Butter each piece of bread on both sides, then spread 4 with the 1 tbsp marmalade each. Pop the remaining bread on top to make 4 marmalade sandwiches. Cut into triangles and nestle in rows in a large baking dish. Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3.
• Beat the milk, cream, eggs, vanilla, sugar and whisky together, then pour over the bread. Leave to soak for 30 mins.
• Dot the remaining marmalade all over the top of the pud and dust with the icing sugar. Bake for 45 mins-1 hr or until puffy and starting to caramelise where the bread breaks out of the custard. Serve hot or warm.

CHOCOLATE-PUMPKIN SWIRL BREAD WITH MARMALADE BUTTER

Steps:

• For the marmalade butter: Mix the butter, marmalade, orange zest and sea salt together in a bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from the refrigerator 15 minutes before serving.
• For the swirl bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with butter, or spray with nonstick spray; set aside.
• Combine the flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and fine salt in a medium bowl.
• Place the sugar and oil in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until well combined (it'll look like wet sand), about 1 minute.
• Turn the mixer to medium speed and add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce the speed to low, add the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract, and mix until just combined, about 30 seconds. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl and the paddle. Add the flour mixture, and mix until just combined.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer and drizzle the melted chocolate evenly over the batter.
• Using a rubber spatula, fold the chocolate into the batter until it's just swirled in. (Be careful not to fully incorporate the chocolate into the batter--you want a marbled effect.)
• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it into an even layer. Bake until the bread is browned on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool another 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the marmalade butter.

BUTTER BURGERS WITH CRISPY CHEESE SKIRTS AND ONION-PICKLE MARMALADE

Steps:

• For the onion-pickle marmalade: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onions and pickles and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the vinegar and cook until the mixture has reduced and become sticky, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• For the burgers: Mix the butter with the beef, salt and pepper in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined. Form 6 equal patties with your hands.
• Heat a griddle over medium-high heat until hot. Add the patties and cook until browned on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until caramelized, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the patties again. Top 1 patty with a 4-ounce mound of the cheese and cover with a small metal bowl until the cheese melts and cascades around the patty to form a cheese "skirt." When the cheese skirt is crispy around the edges, carefully remove the bowl and transfer the patty with the attached cheese skirt to a plate. Repeat with the remaining patties and cheese.
• For the sauce: Stir the mayonnaise and steak sauce in a small bowl until combined. Dollop an equal amount on the bottom buns. Top with the lettuce, tomatoes and cheese-skirt patties. Dollop with the marmalade, close the burgers and serve right away.

TOASTED PAIN D'ÉPICE WITH KUMQUAT MARMALADE BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Lightly butter a loaf pan.
• In a large saucepan, bring the honey, brown sugar, and 3/4 cup water to a boil, stirring frequently. As soon as it comes to a boil, take the mixture off the heat. Sift in 1 cup of the flour, whisking continuously. Set aside.
• Sift together the remaining cup of flour, the baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
• Whisk together the eggs, egg yolk, ginger, and ginger juice. Whisk the honey mixture into the eggs. Slowly fold the remaining dry ingredients into the batter in three parts (if you add too much or too quickly, your batter will be lumpy).
• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, and bake 35 to 40 minutes, until the loaf is firm to the touch. Let cool completely before slicing.
• Heat one or two cast-iron pans over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. (You can toast the pain d'épice in two pans or in batches.)
• Cut six 1/2-inch-thick slices of pain d'épice, and butter them on both sides. Place the slices in the pan, and toast a few minutes on each side, until golden brown and crisp. Slather each slice with kumquat marmalade butter, and fan them out on a platter, overlapping them slightly. Top with the reserved candied kumquats.
• In a medium saucepan, bring the granulated sugar and 2 cups water to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to make sure the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the kumquats, and cover the fruit with a piece of parchment or a small plate to keep them submerged. Turn the heat to low, and cook about 25 minutes, until the kumquats are translucent. Drain the fruit, reserving the sugar syrup. When the kumquats have cooled, cut them in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Cut halves lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices.
• Cream the butter and confectioners' sugar at medium-low speed in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until it's light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add all but 3 tablespoons of the candied kumquats. Add a tablespoon or two of the reserved syrup and a pinch of salt. Mix to combine, taste, and add more syrup if you like.

ORANGE MARMALADE BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Cube bread and place into a large bowl. Drizzle with melted butter and toss to coat. Drop the marmalade in by spoonfuls and toss to coat/combine. Set aside while you make the custard.
• For the custard, combine all the custard ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk well to combine.
• Pour custard over bread cubes and toss well. Allow mixture to soak for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350F (not fan-assisted).
• Once bread has soaked, spoon mixture into individual ramekins or one large baking dish. Pour any custard liquid left in the bowl into the ramekins, if it will fit. *If ramekins are super-full, you may wish to bake on top of a baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until they they test set. Test by inserting a knife into the centre of the pudding. It should come out clean.
• Serve warm or at room temperature, dusted with icing/confectioners/ sugar. Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 2 days.

CARROTS WITH BACON & MARMALADE BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high and grill the bacon for 3-4 mins each side until crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
• Chop the bacon as finely as you can and combine well with the butter and marmalade. Will keep chilled for up to three days.
• Put the carrots in a pan and cover with boiling water. Boil for 5-6 mins until cooked but retaining some bite, then drain and tip into a bowl. Put slices of the butter on top, tossing until the butter has melted.

TERIYAKI SALMON WITH MARMALADE BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the marmalade butter by thoroughly combining the butter and marmalade - a stand mixer with a paddle is ideal. Roll the butter in parchment paper into a 1½" wide log and store in the refrigerator to harden.
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger root and orange zest and cook two minutes.
• Add the soy sauce, wine, sesame oil and honey and cook until the alcohol has evaporated. Sniff the fumes to determine this. If the fumes irritate your nose, there is still alcohol present. Cool completely.
• Pour marinade over the salmon and refrigerate for at least two hours.
• Broil or grill the salmon for three minutes per side and top with the marmalade butter.

ZUCCHINI BUTTER OR MARMALADE (YOU CHOOSE)

Steps:

• Coarsely grate the zucchini. Let it drain in a colander for 3 to 4 minutes or until you are ready to begin cooking. To hasten cooking time, squeeze the water out of the zucchini by wringing it in a clean cloth towel.
• In a deep skillet, heat the olive oil/butter. Sauté the shallots briefly. Add the zucchini and toss. Cook and stir over medium to medium-high heat until the zucchini reaches a spreadable consistency. If you scorch the bottom, turn the flame down! (And scrape those delicious bits into the marmalade for added flavor.) The zucchini will hold its bright green color and slowly caramelize into a nice vegetable jam. Enjoy on toast, or as a side dish! Keeps well and can be stored in the refrigerator for about a month. One of my friends used red onion and garlic. She said it was fantastic!
