Can You Use Margarine Instead?

No, this recipe needs to be made with butter. Store-brand butter is fine – there’s no need to buy fancy butter. Margarine just won’t whip up the same way, and it won’t taste nearly as good.

How To Make The Best Texas Roadhouse Butter

  1. Add all the ingredients to a bowl and whip it with an electric hand mixer until it is light and fluffy.

Recipe Tips

  • For the fluffiest butter, let it soften on the counter for an hour or 2 before whipping.
  • Fresh cinnamon makes all the difference! Toss that 10-year-old bottle of ground cinnamon and buy fresh – it’ll be so much more flavorful!
  • Reduce the sugar if you don’t like it quite so sweet.
  • You can also use a stand mixer, but the whisk attachment might have trouble because there are so few ingredients. An electric hand mixer really is best.

Do You Have To Refrigerate Honey Butter?

Is This Honey Butter Vegan?

No, but a few swaps will make it vegan. Use your favorite vegan-friendly butter in place of the dairy, and use agave syrup instead of honey. The flavor of the vegan cinnamon butter will be very close to the Texas Roadhouse version.
