Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey
  • ½ teaspoon dried English lavender buds (food-grade or culinary quality)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, whip the softened butter with an electric mixer for 3 to 5 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  • Add the honey and salt, mixing until fully incorporated.
  • Gently fold in the lavender buds, ensuring even distribution throughout the butter.
  • Garnish with additional lavender flowers if desired.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Notes

  • Nutrition information is estimated and may vary based on ingredients used.
  • Use culinary-grade lavender only. Lavender grown for crafts or fragrance is not suitable for cooking.
  • A little lavender goes a long way. Start with the listed amount and adjust to taste to avoid overpowering the butter.
  • For a lighter texture, whip the butter longer. For a denser, more traditional texture, mix just until combined.
  • Honey is optional. You can omit it for a more savory herb butter or substitute infused honey for added flavor.
  • Store herb butter in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, or freeze for longer storage.
