Cinnamon Honey Butter is a favorite topping

I’m not sure if you’d believe me if I were to share how many sticks of butter we’ve gone through the past few months. As we’ve spent more time than usual at home, we’ve found ourselves in the kitchen just that much more. I say it all the time: good food brings great comfort.

During this time, popovers have been on repeat. Besides being so very easy to make, they go with almost everything! And they transition wonderfully from the soups and comfort food of winter right into the salads and grilling of spring and summer. We go back and forth between this sourdough popovers recipe and these regular popovers.

And time and time again, no matter the meal, we come back to this light and fluffy whipped Cinnamon Honey Butter recipe. It’s a favorite topping at our house, and such an easy treat!

Better than Texas Roadhouse butter recipe!

If you’ve ever bitten into a warm roll slathered with cinnamon honey butter at Texas Roadhouse, then you already know about the deliciousness of this spreadable treat.

My recipe is very similar to the Texas Roadhouse butter recipe, but mine has more fluffiness and cinnamon, and less honey. It’s how I prefer it. And I think it’s BETTER!

Ingredients for the best cinnamon honey butter, plus variations and substitutions

This recipe uses five super common ingredients:

Another fun variation is to add a splash of pure vanilla extract or pure almond extract (please don’t use imitation extract!). You could also use vanilla beans, scraped straight from the pod. Or vanilla bean paste!

How to make whipped butter

This recipe is super simple to make. For a fluffy whipped butter, just follow these instructions:

  1. Beat butter for 2 minutes. Be sure to use room temperature butter that is just slightly soft. Use a stand mixer or powerful hand mixer for best (fluffiest) results. Beating by hand will not give the same volume.
  2. Add powdered sugar, honey, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. Beat again for 2 minutes, to add increased fluffy texture.

Honey Butter FAQ:

How do you store honey butter?

Store the cinnamon honey butter in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. This fluffy butter is most definitely most enjoyable at room temperature.

Do you have to refrigerate honey butter?

If you still have butter left after three days sitting at room temperature, then put it in the refrigerator.

If you store it in the refrigerator, just let it come to room temperature before serving again. Do not microwave, as this will break down the fluffy texture…and possibly end up in a soupy mess!

How long will cinnamon honey butter last?

When stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, this honey butter will be good for about one month.

Can you freeze honey butter?

Yes. You can definitely freeze this butter.

Place desired amount of honey butter onto a piece of plastic and wrap it up tightly to remove any air. Wrap another layer of plastic wrap tightly over the first one, and then place in a freezer baggie. Freeze for up to 2 months.
