Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 pinch salt (optional)
Instructions
Ensure the unsalted butter is softened by leaving it at room temperature for about 30 minutes. It should be soft enough to blend but not melted.
In a mixing bowl, add the softened butter, honey, vanilla extract (if using), and a pinch of salt (if using).
Using a hand mixer or a spoon, beat the ingredients together until the mixture is light, fluffy, and fully combined.
Taste the honey butter. Adjust sweetness by adding a little more honey if desired or balance flavors with an extra pinch of salt.
Transfer the honey butter spread to a serving dish or an airtight container.
Serve immediately with your favorite baked goods or refrigerate for later use. If chilled, bring it to room temperature before serving for easy spreading.
