Easy Maple Cinnamon Butter Recipe

When it comes to buying maple syrup only the real deal will do. You won’t find artificial maple syrup in my pantry despite the fact that real maple syrup is pricier. Some ingredients just shouldn’t be skimped on and maple syrup falls into that category for me. For years I bought Grade B Maple syrup which wasn’t as the letter implies, a lesser quality than Grade A. The darker color paired with a rich and robust flavor is simply what appealed to my taste.  Then, the grading system was changed a few years ago and in essence, it expanded the definition of  Grade A maple syrup variety into several different Grade A maple syrup blends that somewhat overlap with one another. You can read more about the grades of maple syrup here on New England Today Food.

 

How to Make the BEST Maple Cinnamon Butter Recipe

• Ingredients you’ll need to make Maple Cinnamon Butter: Salted butter, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, light brown sugar and vanilla extract.
• Kitchen tools you’ll need: A medium bowl, hand mixer, small cookie or ice cream scoop, measuring cups and spoons.
• When considering the type of maple syrup to use for this butter I  recommend using a Grade A Amber or Dark color which has an almost brown sugar like in taste.
• If the maple syrup you enjoy is different from the above never fear, the recipe will certainly still work with no other adjustments needed to be made.
• You can use unsalted butter for this recipe. When doing so, add 1/4 tsp additional salt to the recipe to adapt.
• When adding the cinnamon to the butter mixture add 1 1/2 teaspoon whipping it into the butter, then stop and taste. Add additional cinnamon to suit your personal preference.
• The yield may vary depending on how it’s divided. A small 1 tablespoon scoop would yield around 16 servings.
• Should you choose to roll this butter into a cylinder shape, wrap in plastic wrap and slice it instead, you may yield more or less than 16 servings.
• Store prepared butter in an airtight container chilled for 3-5 days.
