Salted Maple Whipped Butter
Salted Maple Whipped Butter, whipped to light and fluffy and sweetened with your favourite maple syrup and sea salt, this versatile butter has many different uses. For example you can use it with:
- Cinnamon, Apple and Almond Cupcakes
- Carrot Cupcakes with Coconut and Pecans
- Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
- Blueberry and Lemon Muffins
- Banana Muffins
- Banana Bread
- Hot toast
- Hot crumpets

Maple Syrup or Honey?
If you prefer, you could replace the maple syrup with honey or agave syrup to sweeten the butter. I use all three sweeteners depending on what I fancy, what’s available and what I am serving it with. They are pretty much interchangeable.
Spices
Equally you can add spices to the butter. Try adding any of the following spices, to taste –
- Cinnamon
- Pumpkin/Autumn spice
- Chai spice
- Christmas spice
- Cardamom
- Ginger
- Nutmeg
- Mixed Spice
- Cocoa
- Coffee Powder
