Garlic Scape Butter

This easy homemade garlic scape butter is one of my favorite ways to preserve fresh garlic scapes from the garden. Blended with creamy butter and a touch of lemon, it's perfect for spreading on warm sourdough bread, melting over grilled steaks, or tossing with roasted vegetables. This simple recipe is a delicious way to make the most of your garlic harvest.
