This whipped Honey Butter is sweet, creamy, and so versatile! This 3 ingredient recipe comes together in a matter of minutes.
Ingredients
- Butter – unsalted butter that’s been softened to room temperature is the base of this recipe. Salted may be used if that’s all that is available, simply omit the additional salt, follow the directions as written, then taste and add in a bit of salt, if necessary. Vegan, plant-based butter may be used as well.
- Honey – packed with antioxidants and naturally sweetens this butter. Use whatever honey you have on hand.
- Salt – balances out the sweetens of the honey.
Pro tip
Try using local honey! It’s more flavorful and bonus: can help with allergies!
How to make
- Beat butter, honey, and salt in stand mixer until fluffy.
- Taste and re-season, if necessary, then serve as desired and enjoy!
Pro tip
A [smty_affil id="35878"]hand mixer[/smty_affil] or even a rubber spatula will work as well, it just won’t be as fluffy!
Tips
- Use room temperature butter. Room temperature butter is much easier to work with than cold butter.
- Try different varieties of honey. Try different flavors of local honey (wildflower, orange blossom, blueberry, etc.) for slight variations on this recipe!

How to store
Leftovers can be stored in a sealed airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days, in the fridge for 2-3 months, or in the freezer for up to 4 months.
To enjoy again, thaw in the fridge, if frozen, then allow to soften at room temperature for an hour before serving!
