Ingredients

  • 1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of Kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Add ingredients: Place the room temperature unsalted butter, powdered sugar, honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of Kosher salt into a food processor bowl.
  2. Blend until smooth: Process the mixture on high speed until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the texture is light, fluffy, and smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
  3. Serve and enjoy: Transfer the cinnamon butter to a serving dish and spread generously over warm rolls, fluffy pancakes, or freshly baked muffins for a deliciously sweet and spiced accompaniment.

Notes

  • For best results, ensure the butter is softened to room temperature to blend easily.
  • This cinnamon butter can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Allow refrigerated cinnamon butter to soften slightly at room temperature before serving for easier spreading.
  • You can adjust honey quantity to taste for more or less sweetness.
  • Try substituting maple syrup for honey for a different flavor profile.
