Ingredients for the Texas Roadhouse Cinnamon Honey Butter

  • Salted butter: The base of this recipe, adding richness and smooth texture.
  • Powdered sugar: Provides a subtle sweetness and a fluffy body to the butter.
  • Honey: Adds natural sweetness and a sticky-smooth consistency.
  • Ground cinnamon: Brings that warm, spiced note that makes this butter so comforting and nostalgic.

Each ingredient plays a key role: the butter creates the creamy foundation, while the powdered sugar and honey sweeten and lighten the mix. Cinnamon ties it all together with a cozy, inviting flavor.


How To Make the Texas Roadhouse Cinnamon Honey Butter

Step 1: Soften the Butter

Let the butter sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This makes it easier to whip and blend with other ingredients.

Step 2: Mix Until Fluffy

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, powdered sugar, honey, and ground cinnamon. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light, fluffy, and fully combined.

Step 3: Scrape and Stir

Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides and give the butter one final stir to ensure all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 4: Transfer and Store

Spoon the butter into a mason jar or airtight container. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use. Let it soften at room temperature before serving.


How to Serve and Store Cinnamon Honey Butter

Serve this butter generously slathered on warm dinner rolls, fluffy pancakes, toast, biscuits, waffles, or cornbread. It also makes a fantastic topping for baked sweet potatoes or banana bread.

To store, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. Let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before spreading for that perfect soft texture. You can also freeze it for up to 2 months—just thaw overnight in the fridge.
