This creamy whipped honey butter recipe is a simple and delicious way to enhance cornbread, pancakes, and other dishes. Made with just three ingredients—unsalted butter, honey, and salt—it's easy to whip up in minutes and adds a luscious, sweet flavor to your favorite meals.

  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 20 servings (about 1 1/4 cups)

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature (227g)
  • ¼ cup honey (60mL)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Butter: In a medium bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter on medium speed with a hand mixer or mix well by hand for about 1 minute, until smooth and slightly fluffy.
  2. Add Honey and Salt: Add ¼ cup honey and ¼ teaspoon salt to the whipped butter. Continue beating until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is creamy.
  3. Serve: Transfer the honey butter to a serving bowl. Optionally, drizzle additional honey and sprinkle a bit more salt on top for extra flavor before serving.

Notes

  • Use soft or room temperature butter to make whipping easier; set it out at least 30 minutes before making the recipe.
  • If your honey has crystallized, gently heat the jar in warm water until it returns to liquid form.
  • To easily remove honey from the measuring cup, lightly grease it with oil before measuring.
  • If you don't have a hand mixer, you can whisk the butter and honey by hand for about 30 seconds—but be sure the butter is very soft.
  • For honey-swirled butter, fold in an extra tablespoon of honey after mixing for pretty honey ribbons throughout.
