Hot Honey Butter
What is it?
Hot Honey Butter is honey butter made with spicy 'hot honey' that is infused with chiles. The other ingredients are butter, red pepper flakes, and heavy cream. It isn't super spicy, it just has a little kick to it. The sweet and spicy combination is absolutely delicious. It only takes a few minutes to make.
What should I eat it with?
I recommend making some amazing cornbread to eat with your honey butter. Try our Grandma's Jiffy Cornbread with Creamed Corn or if you prefer dinner rolls, make Grandma's Homemade Crescent Rolls! Whatever bread you have, top it with some of this amazing stuff. We usually like to have Pepper Jelly and Raspberry Jam to go with our dinner as well! Browse all of our tasty jams, jellies, and butters on our spreads page.
