One of our most popular posts on Caramel Potatoes is Jam Butter.  It’s so simple, but if you haven’t tried it, you really should.  It’s a easy mixture of whipped butter and jam, but it’s oh so impressive to set out at your breakfast table or with hot rolls at dinner.  I make Jam Butter each week for some co-workers and it has become a must-have staple.  I don’t dare not bring it!  You can find the recipe here.

This year, I decided to try a cranberry butter for the holidays.   This Cranberry-Orange Honey Butter is just as wonderful and will be perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas celebrations – Serve it with hot rolls at your holiday table, on bagels or toast for breakfast, and be sure to try it on hot biscuits!

We hope your Thanksgiving is filled with friends, family, and lots of good food!
