Honey Butter is wonderful on toast, muffins, pancakes, waffles, biscuits, etc.! It makes a great gift too! This recipe uses raw honey.
"Raw honey" describes honey in it's natural state; it has not been heated to retard crystallization and pollen has not bee filtered out.
The beneficial nature (enzymes and pollen, anti-bacterial and antioxidant characteristics, for instance) of honey is retained in "raw honey".

1 cup honey
Cream the butter. Add the honey and blend/whip until smooth. Store in covered glass containers and refrigerated.
Variations include adding some grated rind of an orange. Or, add about 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Invent your own special blend.
