Almond Cinnamon Sugar Butter

Almond Cinnamon Sugar Butter - a wonderful sweet topping for toast, waffles, pancakes, and more.  A touch of almond extract makes this butter divine.

Sometimes the simplest things are the best things.  This sweet butter is one of those things.  Cinnamon sugar and a hint of almond extract create the most delectable spread for your morning toast.

I've been eating lots of cinnamon toast lately and it's all because of this butter.  Slightly sweet.  The warmth of the cinnamon.  The wonderful almond flavor.  Just heaven!

Ingredients

With just four ingredients that are likely in your pantry, you can whip up this sweet butter in a matter of minutes.  If you aren't a fan of almond flavoring, simply substitute vanilla extract.

Tips

Allow 30-60 minutes to soften the butter to room temperature.  This ensures the ingredients will blend together smoothly.  Simply add the ingredients to the bowl of a stand mixer and blend until well combined.  Alternatively, leave the butter at room temperature for about 2 hours (or even overnight) so you can easily stir the ingredients together by hand.   This yields the most optimal spreading consistency.

The butter can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one month.  Let the butter soften to room temperature before serving.
