Citrus Free Paleo Maple Cinnamon Ghee
Warm, nutty ghee whipped together with real maple syrup and ground cinnamon is the kind of simple kitchen magic that makes everything it touches taste special. This compound ghee comes together in just a few minutes of whisking, and the result is a rich, lightly sweet spread with a gorgeous depth of flavor. It's naturally free of citrus in every form — no zest, no juice, no hidden extracts — so you can slather it on without a second thought. Melt a spoonful over roasted sweet potatoes, swirl it into a bowl of oatmeal, or spread it thick on a warm paleo-friendly biscuit and watch it disappear. The optional vanilla powder adds a subtle floral note that makes the whole thing feel almost indulgent, even though the ingredient list stays clean and simple. Store it in a glass jar in the fridge and you'll have a ready-to-go finishing touch that elevates weekday meals and weekend brunches alike.

- ¼ tsp fine sea salt
- ⅛ tsp pure vanilla powder (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Allow the ghee to sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes until it is soft and spreadable — similar in consistency to softened butter. It should yield easily to a spoon but hold its shape.
