Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 pinch fine sea salt
Instructions
Ensure the unsalted butter is at room temperature for easy mixing. If it is too firm, let it sit at room temperature for 30-45 minutes.
In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened butter, honey, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, vanilla extract, and a pinch of fine sea salt.
Using a hand mixer or a wooden spoon, cream the ingredients together until fully incorporated and smooth. Ensure there are no lumps and the honey and spices are evenly distributed.
Taste the butter and adjust the sweetness or spices to your liking, if necessary.
Spoon the mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Shape it into a log or press it into a small dish for easy serving.
Refrigerate the butter for at least 30 minutes to firm up before use.
Serve cold or softened at room temperature. Use it as a spread for bread, muffins, or pancakes, or as a finishing touch for roasted vegetables.
