Cinnamon Honey Butter

Bring out the biscuits and start slathering them with cinnamon honey butter that's been whipped to absolute perfection. 

I love it when restaurants serve honey butter with bread. I am but a simple lady who enjoys simple pleasures like this. Of course, I don't always want to have to go out to enjoy some fancy butter. Luckily, it is so easy to make at home. 

Ingredients

We only need a couple of ingredients for the best cinnamon honey butter ever. 

• Butter - I like to use salted butter for this because we use it just as a spread for our bread. If you want to use unsalted butter, you can - just add a pinch or two of salt to your mixture. I recommend reaching for a high-quality butter so you can really enjoy the spread! 
• Honey - You can use any honey you have. I prefer to use raw honey, but it is definitely not required. I also sometimes experiment with infused honey. 
• Sugar - Use powdered sugar. It helps to round out the sweetness and add a creaminess to the butter. 
• Cinnamon - I love cinnamon, so I will often add more cinnamon than what the recipe calls, but I recommend starting there and seeing how you feel after. Remember, the flavors will develop and deepen over time. 
• Vanilla - I love vanilla because it adds so much depth and dimension to the butter. Trust me, it is a game-changer. 

Instructions

There are no real instructions for this recipe - it is that easy to make. There is only one thing you really need to do.

1. Whip it. Whip it good. 

Yes, I went there, no I am not sorry. Add your ingredients together and whip them until they are creamy and light. 

Storage

I recommend chilling the butter enough so you can shape the butter into a log or stick. Wrap it well with parchment paper. You can store it in the refrigerator for weeks, or in the freezer for months. I like to make a big batch and freeze most of it so I always have some available. 

Related recipes

Once you are done making your cinnamon honey butter, I recommend serving it with some homemade ciabatta, traditional Irish soda bread, or challah. I also love it with pumpkin bread, cinnamon banana bread, and lemon zucchini bread.
