This tasty 3-ingredient whipped Maple Cinnamon Butter is easy to make and perfect served with homemade biscuits, rolls, or bread!
As if there was a way to make homemade buttermilk biscuits even better, this whipped maple butter with plenty of spicy cinnamon comes along and does it! Spread a generous amount of this not-too-sweet but perfectly flavorful butter on a warm biscuit and let it melt... oh my goodness, it's so good! The flavors of salted butter, real maple syrup, and cinnamon all shine together in this yummy spread.
Wondering when and with what to serve this cinnamon maple butter? I recommend serving it with breakfast foods like homemade waffles, pancakes, toast, or biscuits. Though it is sweetened with maple syrup, it isn't very sweet, so it would be completely acceptable to serve with dinner as well!
If you are serving dinner rolls or pumpkin biscuits with Thanksgiving dinner, this butter would be great to have on the table as well. It would also be very tasty with my 6-ingredient White Bread or Oatmeal Dinner Rolls.
🧈 Ingredients
Here are the ingredients needed to make this cinnamon maple butter.
Ingredient Notes
- Butter - This recipe calls for salted butter, but it is an easy substitution if you only have unsalted butter. Simply add ½ teaspoon of salt alongside the 1 cup of unsalted butter to ensure proper flavor development.
- Maple Syrup - Pure maple syrup is what you are looking for. I like to buy mine from Costco for an affordable option. You could use honey instead to make honey cinnamon butter.
- Cinnamon - I also buy ground cinnamon from Costco in a large container for my recipes that require quite a bit of cinnamon, like my Cinnamon Chip Muffins and BEST Cinnamon Buns!

Step 3: Mix at low speed just until the cinnamon is all incorporated.
Step 4: Transfer to a pretty bowl or butter dish to serve. Or roll into a log using some wax paper or plastic wrap, or shape with butter molds.
💡 Top Tip
Start with room-temperature butter and maple syrup to ensure the ingredients emulsify together properly into a smooth and fluffy whipped butter.
