Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (room temperature)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Soften the Butter: Ensure the unsalted butter is at room temperature to facilitate easy mixing. If your butter is still cold, cut it into small cubes and allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes or microwave in 10-second increments just until softened but not melted.
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the softened butter, powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a hand mixer or a sturdy spatula to blend everything together until the mixture is light and fluffy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Taste Test: Taste your cinnamon butter to check the flavor balance. If you prefer it sweeter, add an additional tablespoon of powdered sugar. For a stronger cinnamon flavor, sprinkle in a bit more ground cinnamon and mix again.
- Serve and Enjoy: Transfer your cinnamon butter to a serving dish immediately or store it in an airtight container if not using right away. Allowing it to rest for a few hours enhances the flavor as all ingredients meld beautifully.
Notes
- For faster softening, cube the butter before room temperature resting or use short microwave bursts.
- Substitute powdered sugar with coconut sugar for a healthier alternative and a caramel-like flavor.
- Use finely ground cinnamon sticks for a more intense cinnamon taste.
- Try adding a splash of maple extract for a unique flavor twist.
- Store cinnamon butter in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
- Let the butter come to room temperature before serving for easy spreading.
