Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a different flavor)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place the softened butter into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or use a large bowl with a hand mixer.
- Beat the butter on medium speed until it becomes light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add the powdered sugar, honey (or maple syrup), ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the butter.
- Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are incorporated, then increase the speed to medium-high.
- Whip the mixture for 3 to 5 minutes until the cinnamon butter is completely smooth, light, and airy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Serve immediately with warm bread or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
- For the best texture, make sure your butter is truly at room temperature, not melted.
- If you plan to store this homemade cinnamon butter, let it sit out for 10-15 minutes before serving to soften slightly for easy spreading.
- You can adjust the cinnamon and sweetener amounts to match your preferred level of spice and sweetness.
