Citric Acid Free Honey Butter
Whipped until pale and fluffy, this simple spread is the kind of thing that makes a plain piece of toast feel like a treat. The combination of creamy butter, golden honey, and a pinch of flaky sea salt hits that perfect sweet-savory note that's hard to stop eating. For anyone avoiding citric acid, store-bought flavored butters and spreads can be surprisingly tricky — many contain preservatives or natural flavor blends that sneak it in. This one keeps things beautifully clean with just three straightforward ingredients, so you know exactly what you're putting on your bread, biscuits, or pancakes. It comes together in just a few minutes with a hand mixer, and you can roll it into a log to keep in the fridge for whenever the craving strikes. Honestly, once you've made your own compound butter this easy, it's hard to go back.
