I made these blackberry apricot scones the day before I made this blackberry orange honey butter. And, although my husband and girls got to taste them, let me tell you that it was so hard trying to keep my family away from the scones long enough for me to make the butter and take pictures! They kept asking me, “Can I have one now?” Lol!

Do I really need a “DO NOT EAT” sign in my own fridge? It turns out, I do!

Only Four Ingredients to Make Blackberry Orange Honey Butter

I love that this recipe only has 4 ingredients! What’s even better is that it takes less than five minutes to whip up.

Let’s go over the ingredients for this recipe!

• Butter: You can use salted on unsalted butter. If you use unsalted butter, add a small pinch of salt. This really brings out the flavor! You’ll want to make sure that your butter is softened to room temperature, but not melted so that it can be whipped.
• Blackberries: I’m using fresh blackberries, but I don’t see why you can’t use frozen blackberries. It should turn out fine. Just be sure to thaw out the frozen blackberries before adding.
• Honey: Liquid honey is the best for this recipe as it blends well. If you only have a solid type of honey, place it in the microwave for a few seconds so that it becomes a little bit more liquid.
• Orange Zest: The zest of one orange adds an incredible citrus flavor! It gives you the orange flavor without having all that liquid from the juice of an orange. See images below on how to zest an orange. I’m using a rasp grater. You can also the fine-side of a box cheese grater to do this.

How to Zest an Orange

Using a rasp grater or box cheese grater, grate the outer peel of an orange going in a top to bottom motion. Be sure to only grate the outer orange part and not the white pith underneath. The white pith is bitter and you don’t what a bitter flavor in your blackberry orange honey butter!

Can You Make This Flavored Blackberry Orange Honey Butter Ahead?

Yes, you can make this flavored butter a few days in advance! It’s best to store flavored butter in a glass jar with a lid and stored in the fridge until ready to use.

How Long Does Blackberry Orange Honey Butter Last?

Blackberry orange honey butter can last up to 1 week in the refrigerator and up to one month in the freezer. Thaw frozen honey butter overnight in the fridge or put it out on the counter and bring it to room temperature slowly. This should take about 1-3 hours depending on the weather.

Honey Substitute

If you don’t love the taste of honey, you can always substitute it for 2 Tablespoons of granulated sugar or 2 Tablespoons of sifted powdered sugar.

How to Make Blackberry Orange Honey Butter

Step 1: Whip the Butter and Orange Zest – whip butter until it becomes light and fluffy. Then add the orange zest until it’s evenly combined.

Step 2: Add the Honey or Sugar – then whip the butter until well blended.

Step 3: Add Blackberries – scrape the bowl and then add blackberries.

Step 4: Whip – until blackberries are evenly blended in with the butter mixture.

Serve & Enjoy!

Note: You can serve the butter immediately after whipping. However, I found that putting the butter in the fridge for about 15 minutes after whipping allowed the flavors to marinade together more and the flavor was enhanced.
