Golden Brown Butter Spread: A Savory Snack Surprise



Ingredients



- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional, adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh ground black pepper for garnish (optional)
- Rustic bread slices or crackers for serving

Instructions



1. Prepare the Butter
Place the butter in a medium-sized, heavy-bottom saucepan. Cut the butter into chunks for faster and even melting.

2. Melt and Brown the Butter
Set the stove to medium heat. Stir the butter continuously as it melts to prevent it from burning. Continue to cook until the butter froths and then subsides, turning a rich brown color with a nutty aroma. This process should take about 8-10 minutes.

3. Add Honey and Vanilla
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the honey and vanilla extract until well combined. Add salt if desired. The mixture should be smooth and fragrant.

4. Cool the Butter
Pour the browned butter mixture into a heat-resistant bowl and let it cool slightly for about 5 minutes at room temperature.

5. Serve
For a gourmet presentation, serve the brown butter spread into small ramekins or a shallow serving dish. Garnish with freshly ground black pepper if using. Serve with rustic bread slices or crunchy crackers for dipping.

6. Storage Tips
If there are leftovers, store the brown butter spread in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Let it soften at room temperature before serving for the best texture.
