Make this creamy, fluffy cinnamon butter at home in under five minutes. This easy recipe tastes just like the famous Texas Roadhouse spread, perfect for warm rolls or toast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Place the softened butter into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or use a large bowl with a hand mixer.
  2. Beat the butter on medium speed until it becomes light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add the powdered sugar, honey or maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the bowl.
  4. Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are incorporated, then increase the speed to medium-high.
  5. Whip the mixture for 3 to 5 minutes until the cinnamon butter is very light, smooth, and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  6. Serve immediately with warm rolls, pancakes, or toast. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • For a slightly different flavor profile, substitute the honey or maple syrup with 1/4 cup of packed brown sugar for a Brown Sugar Cinnamon Butter.
  • If your butter is too cold, the mixture will not whip properly. Allow it to sit on the counter for at least 30 minutes before starting.
  • If you plan to serve this butter later, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly for easy spreading.
