Rebecca’s Tips For Making Whipped Honey Butter
- Adding Salt – This recipe calls for unsalted butter as well as salt. Adding the two separate ingredients allows you to have more flavor control when making this butter.
- Softened Butter – Remove the butter from the refrigerator a few hours before you plan to make this recipe. Doing so brings the butter to room temperature while softening it. Allowing it to whip up better when it’s in the mixer.
- Using A Mixer – This homemade whipped honey butter does call for the use of a hand or stand mixer! High-speed mixing is necessary for getting this butter to its light and fluffy consistency. It’s normal for the butter mixture to look wet and thick before using the mixer. After it’s beaten with the mixer, it’ll become the light and fluffy texture that we’re looking for!
- Gifting Tip – If you plan to gift jars of this honey butter, transfer the butter into a piping bag with a large piping tip. Pipe the butter into clear glass jars for a pretty presentation!
- Fruity Variation – If you’re looking for a whipped strawberry-honey butter or even raspberry or blackberry, simply add a few tablespoons of jam to the mix. You may find you don’t need the powdered sugar if you add any fruit preserves, though.
- Cinnamon Variation – Add some ground cinnamon to taste for cinnamon honey butter!
Storage Instructions for Whipped Honey Butter
Store the finished honey butter in the fridge in an airtight container. I like storing mine in a mason jar but any Tupperware or tightly sealed container works! Honey butter stored in the fridge lasts for up to 1 month.
You can also store this whipped honey butter at room temperature, too. I prefer this because it keeps its texture as long as it doesn’t get too warm. If storing this butter at room temperature, you’ll want to use it up within 1 week.
