Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
¼ cup honey
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

In a large bowl, add in all of the ingredients and beat until light, fluffy, and fully incorporated.
Serve with bread, pancakes, waffles, French toast, and biscuits.

Notes

Use softened butter: Cold butter won't whip properly, so let it soften before mixing.
Don't melt the butter: You want softened butter, not melted butter. Melted butter won't give you the same fluffy texture.
Use good-quality honey: Since honey is one of the main flavors, a good-quality honey can make a noticeable difference.
Mix until fluffy: Don't stop mixing as soon as everything is combined. Continue until the butter is light and fluffy.
Scrape the bowl: Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl so the cinnamon and other ingredients are evenly distributed.
Taste before serving: Give the butter a quick taste and adjust the cinnamon or sweetness if desired.
Serve it slightly softened: If you've refrigerated the butter, let it sit out briefly before serving so it's easy to spread.
Make it ahead: This butter is perfect for making ahead and keeping chilled until you're ready to use it.
Don't limit it to breakfast: It's delicious with pancakes and waffles, but don't forget about warm bread, biscuits, muffins, and more.
