Whipped Honey Cinnamon Butter is the perfect topping for tons of your favorite recipes. It's easy to make, light, perfectly sweet, absolutely delicious!

I think it's safe to say that if you're here, you like butter. While butter is delicious on it's own, it is nothing like this cinnamon butter sweetened with whipped honey. It adds just the right amount of sweetness while also making the butter light and airy.

I love to make this for Sunday brunch to add on top of a beautiful pancake stack. Need a pancake recipe? Try my Buttermilk Pancakes or Healthy Low Calorie Pancakes recipe.

One of my favorite parts about this recipe is that it is so easy to make. You barely have to lift a finger. You can add all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender and it does the work for you! The butter comes out nice and fluffy. The texture is light, spreadable and irresistibly delicious.

Ingredient Notes

Butter - I use salted butter for this recipe as well as when I bake. You do not have to use salted butter if you don't want to/don't have it. You can use unsalted butter then add salt to taste if desired.
Honey - Get local honey a farmers market or your local grocery store! One of my favorites is the clover honey from Trader Joe's.
Cinnamon - Any cinnamon will work for this recipe. Get what is convenient for your or you may already have some in your cupboard!

What do I put the whipped honey butter on?

There are endless possibilities! However, my favorite has to be putting it on my buttermilk pancakes. They are light, fluffy and absolutely delicious. The whipped honey butter with cinnamon is the perfect addition to this stack of pancakes.

Some other ideas are that you can also add it on top of waffles, french toast or even use it in your cinnamon rolls.
