Lavender Honey Butter

Hear me when I say: This is the EASIEST fancy thing you’ve ever made — it takes maybe five minutes and uses just three ingredients. It’s sweet, a little floral, super spreadable, and honestly feels like a hug on warm toast.

This Lavender Honey Butter is my go-to when I want something a little special without putting in a ton of effort. Perfect for brunch, breakfast-for-dinner, or just spreading on a muffin during toddler nap time.

🧈Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter, softened

• 3 tbsp My Lavender Syrup (or more if you like it extra floral)

• 1 tbsp honey

• Optional: pinch of flaky salt on top

👩🏻‍🍳How to Make It

1. Let the butter soften.

   Room temp is key here — you want it soft enough to stir easily but not melted.

2. Mix it all together.

   I use a mixer but if you don’t want to just grab a spoon or spatula and stir the butter, lavender syrup, and honey together in a bowl until smooth and creamy.

3. Taste and tweak.

   More honey if you want it sweeter, more syrup if you want it more floral. Totally up to you.

4. You can use it right away or pop it in a jar and keep it in the fridge for up to a week. If you’re feeling extra, sprinkle a little flaky salt on top when you serve it.

   
   

🪻 Ways to Use It

• Slather it on toast, scones, pancakes, biscuits — basically anything carb-y

• Dollop it on oatmeal or waffles (trust me)

• Serve with cornbread at dinner for a fun twist

• Use it like a light frosting for tea cakes or muffins

• Add it to roasted carrots or sweet potatoes for a subtle sweet glaze vibe

Why I’m Obsessed

Because it feels fancy but takes zero brain power — which, as someone parenting a toddler and small business AND managing ADHD, is my kind of recipe.

This butter has major “I’m romanticizing my life” energy without the chaos. And sometimes, when the house is loud and the day’s been long, spreading something soft and floral on a warm slice of bread is the pause I didn’t know I needed.

If you give it a try, I’d love to see it! Tag me or drop a comment. And if you’re making My Lavender Syrup to go with it — chef’s kiss. They’re made for each other.

Happy eating!
