Cranberry Butter

We love flavored butters. They make for a great addition to so many different breads, bagels, muffins, waffles and more.  Since the holidays are just around the corner, we have been working on adding some new items to our Thanksgiving and Christmas menu. Yesterday, I shared our delicious Waldorf Salad. Oh and earlier in the week, The Best Sweet Potato Casserole.

I knew we needed to think of a great holiday butter to add to our rolls. These past few years, we have been buying Kings Hawaiian dinner rolls. My hubby is seriously addicted to them. He loves the sweetness. He is very frugal but always pays extra for his favorite rolls.

I made this Cranberry Butter because I knew it would be perfect on his rolls and also on my morning bagels and toast. I made one log to be more like a compound butter and then I whipped a batch for dinner rolls.

The flavors in the butter were perfect. You gain quite a bit of orange from the orange juice and zest. The cranberry and orange go so well together. I planned to add this butter to sweet rolls. If you are using plain rolls, go ahead and add a bit of honey or powdered sugar to give it a bit of sweet.
