This Copycat Texas Roadhouse Butter recipe needs nothing more than a little honey, butter, and 2 additional ingredients! Use this on homemade rolls, pancakes, sweet potatoes, and more!
Be sure to pair this with my Texas Roadhouse Rolls Recipe!
If you’ve been to Texas Roadhouse, you probably won’t be able to tell the difference between their delicious honey & cinnamon butter, and this. If you’ve never been there, you have to try this. The sweet cinnamon/honey/butter combo is to die.
I’ve masted the art of making their rolls too- they’re spot on, and perfect with this sweet butter. And when I say that I’ve “mastered the art”, I mean…I used yeast that wasn’t expired. (Did that once, didn’t work out well.)- But attempt #2 worked out perfectly. And after just a day, they’re almost gone. Those glistening, buttery, soft rolls have a hint of honey flavor and are just way too good.
Ingredients
- High-quality Butter
- Honey
- Cinnamon
- Powdered Sugar
The Key To Creamy Butter
To ensure that your butter is creamy and smooth, use high quality butter.
Ensure that it has been at room temperature for at least an hour. Don’t microwave it to achieve this as it will mess with the consistency.
What Brand of Butter is Best?
Grade AA butter is the highest quality butter you can find, if you are able to get your hands on some.
Cabot Salted Butter is definitely better than store-brand butter and is what I love using for this recipe.
What Does Honey Butter Taste Like?
- Honey butter is a delicious combination of salty and sweet, and there is a touch of honey flavor in there as well. It tastes perfectly with various breads, rolls, muffins, pancakes and even sweet potatoes.
Storage
- Honey butter can be stored in the refrigerator for a week. You can even freeze it but taking chilled honey butter and placing it in between some wax paper and wrapping plastic wrap around it.
What To Serve With Honey Butter
- Texas Roadhouse Rolls
- Steak
- Pancakes
- Muffins
- Toast
- Corn on the cob
- Baked potatoes
- Mixed vegetables

Copycat Texas Roadhouse Butter
Ingredients
- 1 stick salted butter, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1.5 Tablespoons honey
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- For a creamy consistency, ensure that your butter is very soft and has been at room temperature for at least an hour.

Refrigerate until ready to use and enjoy!

Oh my Goodness, So Amazing !
Thanks Stephanie! These are always such a big hit. They’re addicting!!!😀
Could you use margarine for this recipe or does it have to be butter?
Hi Sara, margarine would be okay, it wouldn’t taste quite the same but it would still be good!
Went to Texas Roadhouse yesterday & immediately started searching for a recipe for the butter as soon as I got home. Your recipe is bang on! Thank you so much!
Thanks so much Patricia! We make this every Thanksgiving along with Texas Roadhouse Rolls.
Great recipe and gorgeous pictures, thank you! 🙂 I like to make these sort of odd shaped too. Just a comment for consideraiton — You may not need to scald the milk – I don’t for recipes that call for it — there is updated information this is no longer needed due to pasteurization, but the old belief persists and makes it way through recipes still.
One source is Red Star Yeast Website:
“It used to be that scalding milk was necessary to kill bacteria that might affect the yeast activity and to alter a protein in the milk that played havoc with the gluten structure in bread. However, pasteurization has protected us from harmful bacteria and has altered the proteins, so scalding milk is no longer necessary.” – https://redstaryeast.com/yeast-baking-lessons/common-baking-ingredients/liquids/
Hey Erin! Thank you so much for sharing this information, I have heard this information as well and found it so interesting!! It makes complete sense. Did you make this recipe without scalding then, I assume? Since I hadn’t tested it that way I have been hesitant to update the instructions just yet but I would definitely like to if it makes the recipe easier. Do you just add cold milk and proceed as outlined? Thanks again for taking the time to share! -Stephanie
This recipe is spot on! Thank you for sharing this recipe, I will definitely be making this again in the future😃
So happy to hear that Karina!! Thank you so much for the review! -Stephanie
Great recipe! I made no changes 🙂
Hey Elizabeth! Wonderful to hear that, I’m so happy that you enjoyed it, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! -Stephanie
Not an accurate copycat.. I’m questioning the honey. I suspect there is little or no honey in the original recipe
Hi Mindy, I’ve actually called several chains, there is both honey and cinnamon in their butter. They do have plain butter available, but they are known for their signature “honey butter”.
Exactly like Texas Roadhouse!!! Soooo good!!! Thank you 🙂
Hi Lisa, I’m so happy that you liked it! Thank you so much for taking the time to come back and leave a review, I really appreciate it! -Stephanie
Very good!! Made it to have with my family on Easter, definitely a hit! Reminded me and my father of when you were younger and had sugar butter toast.
I am so happy to hear that Emily! We just finished eating these roles as well. They are a keeper right? Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! ❤️❤️
Great recipe! I use it in 2020!
