I’ve got 16 flavored butter spreads that are sweet, savory, creamy, and so ridiculously good you’ll want to slather them on everything. Butter sometimes gets a bad rap, but it’s loaded with good fatty acids, calcium, and vitamins, and it can even help with weight loss.
The French treat butter like gold for a reason. Once you taste these, you’ll be doing the same.
1. Cinnamon Vanilla Honey Butter
Cinnamon, honey, vanilla… oh my. This butter is so good you might catch yourself eating it straight from the bowl with a spoon.
It’s sweet, fluffy, and spreads like a dream. Pile it onto pancakes with a drizzle of maple syrup for the most indulgent breakfast ever.
2. Strawberry Butter
This pastel pink strawberry butter is what summer dreams are made of. Fresh strawberries and a drizzle of floral honey bring all the flavor, along with really good butter, of course.
The little tang from the berries cuts through the richness so beautifully. It’s creamy, sweet, bright, and absolutely irresistible.
3. Jalapeño Honey Butter
This one is fresh, sweet, spicy, and insanely good. The honey and jalapeño dance together so beautifully that even people who usually shy away from heat will love it.
I think it’s fantastic on pretty much any bread, but especially on a warm slab of plain cornbread. Trust me on this.
4. Red Wine and Shallot Butter
Bring a touch of fancy to your dinner table with this red wine and shallot butter. One bite and your guests will be convinced you’ve been secretly training as a chef.
It’s rich, savory, and wonderful with steak and potatoes. The best part? You only need about 15 minutes to put it all together.
5. Cinnamon Sugar Butter with Brown Sugar
Cinnamon, brown sugar, and butter together is just pure magic, the kind you usually find swirled into cinnamon rolls, coffee cake, or apple pie. This cinnamon sugar butter lets you spread that dessert vibe onto anything you like. Toast, pancakes, even a simple slice of bread gets an instant upgrade.
6. Fig Honey Butter
This fig honey butter is dairy free, just like apple butter, so it’s more of a thick, sweet, spiced spread. It’s absolutely lovely on so many things. I especially love the idea of spooning it onto sugar cookies for a rustic, homemade Fig Newton vibe.
7. Honey Butter
Once you try this honey butter, plain butter just won’t cut it anymore, especially on pancakes, warm muffins, or golden toast. It’s so simple to whip up: just butter, honey, and a splash of vanilla. Easy peasy.
8. Honey Sriracha Butter
Craving Asian inspired flavors? This honey Sriracha butter is exactly what you need.
It plays into that brilliant sweet and savory thing that makes dishes like orange chicken or teriyaki so irresistible. Swipe it onto cornbread, or let it melt over grilled chicken for instant magic.
9. Whipped Pumpkin Spice Butter
If you spend all summer dreaming of sweater weather and pumpkin spice everything, this whipped pumpkin spice butter is for you. It’s packed with cozy spices, sweet pumpkin, and floral honey, whipped up into something so rich and luxurious. One schmear on a warm biscuit and you’re in full fall mode.
10. Bacon Butter
You know how bacon makes everything better? That goes double for butter.
This bacon butter is salty, meaty, garlicky, creamy, and packed with flavor. Slather it on bread, bagels, potatoes, or let it melt into pasta and veggies. I’ve even used it on flatbread with cheese and tomatoes for an easy, light meal that tastes anything but.
11. Garlic Herb Butter
I use this garlic herb butter on everything. I cook with it, slather it on crusty bread, let it melt into a sizzling steak… okay, I don’t actually bathe in it, but you get the idea. When a batch of this is in my fridge, it disappears fast.
12. Horseradish Butter
If your meals need a serious flavor kick, this horseradish butter is the answer. It’s just butter, pungent horseradish, and fresh chives, blitzed together in a food processor until everything’s combined.
You can absolutely stir it by hand, too. A little pat on top of a steak is absolutely incredible.
13. Maple Butter
Maple syrup is a true North American treasure, and good luck finding the real deal outside the continent without spending a small fortune. That’s what makes this maple butter so special. It’s actually another dairy free ‘imposter’ on the list, but if it looks like butter and spreads like butter, who’s complaining?
14. Cinnamon Butter (Texas Roadhouse Copycat)
You know how some restaurants are famous for that one thing? Texas Roadhouse is all about the cinnamon butter that lands on the table with their bread.
It’s sweet, cinnamony, and completely addictive. Now you can make it at home and bring a little of that restaurant magic to your kitchen.
15. Cranberry Butter
This cranberry butter is basically the holidays saying hello in the most delicious way. It’s gorgeous, for starters, and then you taste that cranberry orange duo and you’re sold. Tart with just a hint of sweetness, it’s made to go with all your favorite holiday treats.
16. Easy Pear Butter
I adore pears, but somehow I always end up with more than I can eat before they get too ripe. This pear butter is my favorite way to rescue those extras.
Like other fruit ‘butters’ here, it’s really a jam cooked down until it’s got a smooth, buttery consistency. It’s just lovely on toast or swirled into oatmeal.
