Cinnamon Honey Butter

Ingredients:

1 stick of room temperature unsalted butter

1 tsp ground cinnamon

2 Tbsp honey

2 tsp powdered sugar

Pinch of salt

Directions:

Allow the butter to come to room temperature until it is soft and easy to mix.

Add the softened butter to a mixing bowl along with the cinnamon, honey, powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt.

Using a hand mixer, whip the mixture until it becomes light, smooth, and creamy, making sure all ingredients are fully incorporated.

Taste and adjust the sweetness or cinnamon level to your preference.

Serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use. Allow the butter to soften slightly before serving for the best texture.

Chef Scout Recon Tip: Compound butters are a simple way to add a finishing touch to a dish. The key is starting with room-temperature butter—this allows the ingredients to blend evenly and creates a smooth, whipped texture instead of a dense spread.
