Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt (optional)
Instructions
Allow the unsalted butter to soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until it is soft enough to easily mix with a spoon or mixer.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt if using.
Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat the mixture on medium speed until it is light, fluffy, and fully combined. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Taste the butter and adjust the sweetness or cinnamon to your preference by adding additional honey or ground cinnamon if desired.
Transfer the Cinnamon Honey Butter to a small ramekin, serving dish, or an airtight container for storage.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for later use. Remove from the refrigerator about 10 minutes before serving to allow it to soften for easier spreading.
