Easy Frosting
Calories 908kcal
Equipment
- mixing bowl
- fork
Ingredients
- 6 tbsp pastured butter (This is a slightly yellow buttercream frosting. For a whiter frosting you'll want to use ½ cup sustainably harvested palm shortening but although the palm version is pictured my kids ended up really preferring the butter flavor)
- ¼ cup arrowroot powder (or more if needed to thicken the frosting)
- ¼ cup thick honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (or make your own vanilla with this recipe)
- pinch sea salt
- natural food dye (optional)
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients except the optional food dye in a bowl and mix using a fork (or hand mixer) until well-combined.
- Add optional food dye until the desired color is reached. The dye tends to thin out the frosting a bit and make it more spreadable. If not using food dye, add a bit more butter or palm shortening until desired consistency is reached.
