The influence of adding flaxseed oil (2.9–5.1%) and flaxseed–whey protein concentrate (WPC) emulsion (4.8–8.6%) to cream as an omega‐3 fatty acid source was evaluated on the thermal, sensory and physico‐chemical properties of the developed butter. Pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance analysis revealed lower saturated fat content in the fortified butter than control butter. Differential scanning calorimetry exotherms and endotherms also corroborated these findings. Fortified butter prepared with 6.8% flaxseed oil–WPC emulsion had 3.7 times more alpha‐linolenic acid content than control and provided nearly 25% of the recommended dietary allowance in one serving. The developed butter exhibited improved spreadability.
