Vegan Cinnamon Butter

Whipped until smooth and fluffy, this spread gets its warmth from ground cinnamon and a touch of vanilla, with just enough powdered sugar to balance the sweetness. A pinch of salt sharpens the flavor so it never turns one-note, and the whole thing comes together in minutes with nothing more than a hand mixer and a bowl. Rolled into a log and chilled until firm, it slices into tidy rounds that soften beautifully at room temperature, perfect for melting over warm toast, pancakes, or a fresh dinner roll. It's a great option to keep on hand for a vegan spread that still feels indulgent.

Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
2 tbsp powdered sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp vanilla extract
⅛ tsp fine salt (optional)

Instructions

1
Beat the softened butter in a small bowl with a hand mixer on medium speed until smooth and slightly fluffy, about 1 minute.
2
Add the powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt, if using. Beat on low speed until combined, then increase to medium and beat until the mixture is uniform in color and smooth, about 1 minute more.
