The taste of butter is hard to replicate.  Sure you can use oil, but sometimes it’s just not good enough.  Don’t get me wrong, those of us who have sworn off dairy have found creative substitutes for butter.  For example, when baking, great natural butter substitutes include vegetable oils, nut butters, applesauce, fruit purees, and avocado.  These foods are also wonderful bread toppers in their own right.  However, what can you do if you are craving the taste of butter on your popcorn or those cookies just need that hint of butter to be just right?  What if you are just dying for something reminiscent of butter on your morning toast?   Then you are in luck, because we can compiled a list of five dairy free butters that are sure to put your taste buds in butter bliss.
