I am making scones today and thought I’d actually look up a recipe for honey butter. Sounds tough right, honey and butter? I found this recipe from Food Network, specifically from Alton Brown, for Honey Butter. I made it and sampled it and it is divine! Here you go!

Show: Good Eats
Episode: The Case for Butter
1 pound butter
1/4 cups honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Hardware:
Dough scraper
Standing mixer
Parchment paper or plastic wrap
Cut the butter into chunks using the dough scraper.
Place butter into the mixer’s work bowl and beat at low speed, using the whisk attachment to loosen the butter. Increase the speed to medium and add the honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract and beat until well combined, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove butter from bowl and spoon onto parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll into a log and refrigerate for 2 hours.
