Homemade Honey Butter

Every year I make a homemade treat to give to friends and neighbors. This year I am giving this Creamy Honey Butter and a loaf of homemade bread. I found this recipe on Pinterest. It didn’t have a link to a website. It was just a photo of a jar of this golden butter and the recipe. I gave it a try and it was great! I could seriously drink this stuff with a straw! This butter has the BEST flavor! I always have a jar in the fridge.

Helpful Tips & Frequently Asked Questions

  • I use unsalted butter.
    • You can substitute salted butter if you prefer or add a pinch of kosher salt or sea salt to the blender.
    • The butter can be cold, softened, or at room temperature.
  • Feel free to add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or to taste.
    • Another good variation is to add some cinnamon for a cinnamon honey butter recipe.
  • If you don’t have a blender, use a hand mixer, stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or food processor.
  • Storage: Store butter in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
