Easy Honey Butter
Natasha here from Salt & Lavender! Where has honey butter been all my life?! It’s soo good. You can make this delightful spread easily at home from scratch, and it’s much more economical than buying it pre-made. You can even jazz honey butter up a bit by adding some cinnamon (I’d start by adding 1 teaspoon and then build up from there if needed).
Honey Butter Ingredients
Honey (use liquid honey or creamed honey) Butter (I used unsalted, but if you don’t plan on storing the honey butter in the fridge, use salted) Salt (optional) – add a pinch if using unsalted butter
How to Make Honey Butter
How to Store Honey Butter
Whether to refrigerate butter or not is a hot topic, and everyone seems to have a different opinion on it. Honey butter will last longer if it’s refrigerated (up to a few months), but you will need to let it warm up to room temperature and possibly re-stir/mix it to get that same consistency if you do store it in the fridge. A good option is to keep a smaller amount at a time out on your counter for 1-2 days as long as your kitchen is fairly cool. If you don’t plan on storing this spread in the fridge, I recommend adding a bit of salt (or even using salted butter) to help prevent bacterial growth, and of course monitoring it to ensure it hasn’t gone rancid (the smell will be off).
Can You Make 2 ingredient Butter Without a Mixer?
Yes, you can mix it by hand, but the butter will need to be very soft to do this easily.
