Ingredients needed  

You’ll need-  

• ½ cup softened salted butter
• ¼ cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon raw honey (clear not creamed honey)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract  

Butter – salted or unsalted butter can be used. The quality of butter will affect the taste of cinnamon honey butter, use best quality butter. In my recipe I used salted butter.

If you use unsalted butter add ¼ to ½ teaspoon kosher salt to the recipe. Adjust amount of salt as per taste.  

Before you proceed with making cinnamon butter, make sure butter is softened at room temperature. Do not use melted butter and do not use hard refrigerated butter it’ll be crumbly when you whip it. Leave butter on counter at room temperature for 1-2 hours before you start making the cinnamon butter.  

Powdered sugar – you must use powdered sugar. There’s no substitute. Powdered sugar will give volume to the butter. 

My recipe is written with ¼ cup powdered sugar, feel free to increase the sugar to ½ cup if you like sweeeet butter. I do not prefer too sweet butter, ¼ cup works best.  

Honey – not just to add sweetness but honey also adds wonderful flavor and taste to butter. The combination of butter, honey, cinnamon is simply wonderful.

Important: use clear raw honey for best results. Avoid using creamed honey. Liquid honey that has water consistency should not be used. It will not only thin down the butter, butter will fall apart. I like to use less honey as honey can thin down the butter. If you want more sweet adjust the amount of powdered sugar.  

Cinnamon powder – use best quality fresh cinnamon powder.  

Vanilla extract – make sure to use pure vanilla extract not the imitation. Vanilla bean or vanilla bean paste works great too.  

How to make cinnamon butter

Before you proceed with the recipe make sure butter is softened at room temperature. Do not use hard butter from refrigerator directly, do not use melted butter.

Hard butter will be crumbly and melted butter won’t work. Leave butter on the counter at room temperature for 1-2 hours or until softened.  

1. Place all ingredients into a bowl of stand mixer or hand mixer.
2. Beat for few minutes until butter is smooth and creamy.
3. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. If salt in butter isn’t enough you can add ¼ teaspoon kosher or sea salt. Note – if you use table salt, you must use less salt.
4. Store cinnamon butter in glass jar. Slather it generously on rolls, bread, toast, waffles, pancakes, corn bread, muffins.

If you plan to use it in 3 days, you can store the butter at room temperature.

If you want to store longer, cinnamon butter should be refrigerated. It will last about a month in the fridge.

You can also freeze the butter if you want to extend it’s life. Freeze it for 3 months. Frozen butter should be thawed in refrigerator overnight, use it in the morning.
