J's family already had the entire Thanksgiving menu planned before I got to chat with them about it. Obviously I couldn't go empty handed and I didn't want to make double of anything. This butter was a great solution! It's so sweet and delicious. It goes perfectly with a slice of toast or a roll with dinner. It's extremely sweet so just add half of the honey if that's not your thing. Cranberries are ripe this time of year, but always make sure they're not overripe. Perfectly ripe cranberries are firm, bright red, and the insides are white to pink. They also bounce all over the counter! Not necessarily ideal for chopping, but fun nonetheless.
Ingredients
1 pound of unsalted butter
1/2 cup fresh cranberries, chopped
1/2 cup honey
Zest of 1 orange
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Let butter sit out on the counter and come to room temperature.
- Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl with a hand mixer until combined and smooth.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
