1/2 cup butter
2 T. powdered sugar
2 + 1/2 T. maple syrup (the 100% real kind)
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp. pumpkin pie spice (optional)
1/4 tsp. maple extract (optional)
Directions:
Place butter and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl and beat (with a hand mixer, or the whisk attachment of your stand mixer) until combined and smooth. Add maple syrup, cinnamon, pie spice, and extract. beat slowly until combined and then whip for 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy. Serve at room temperature over bread or muffins. This butter is awesome on warm baked goods when it melts a little.
Store in the refrigerator but allow time to bring to room temperature before serving. For best results, stir or re-whip before serving. Lasts for about a week or so in the fridge or several months in the freezer.
