Soy Free Honey Butter
Sweet, salty, and impossibly creamy, this compound butter transforms even the most ordinary slice of toast into something worth slowing down for. It comes together in just a few minutes with three simple ingredients — softened butter, honey, and a pinch of flaky sea salt — so there's almost no reason not to make it. Many flavored butters and spreads on store shelves sneak in soy-based emulsifiers or additives, but this one is completely homemade and straightforward. Beating the butter until pale and fluffy before adding the honey is the small step that makes a big difference, giving it that light, whipped texture you'd expect from a fancy brunch spread. Roll it into a log, slice off rounds as needed, and watch it melt over warm biscuits, cornbread, or pancakes in the most satisfying way. It keeps well in the fridge and makes a genuinely thoughtful homemade gift too.
