What to do with fresh bread

I've been doing a much better job of making bread lately.  Which I don't know why I ever get lazy and stop.  It's totally whole wheat and tastes great.  And since I use my bread machine my part takes all of about 10 minutes.  Thats if I don't already have the wheat ground.  So really I don't have much of an excuse to not make it more!

Pretty much every time I make a loaf after not having it for a while it is devoured in about 2 hours.  Usually everyone has at least one large slice while its warm.  And then we all keep munching away on it until its gone.

Well I wanted to try something different because I would normally just make some honey butter.  I remembered I had pinned some recipes for some orange butter and I thought that sounded really good so off I went to my pinned items.  And for whatever reason I kept finding different recipes for cinnamon honey butter and decided that I should make that instead.  So I did.  I found this recipe at   eatcakefordinner   I mean really how can anything bad come a site like that??

Well this one is such a winner with my family, that we just kind of have it around all the time now.  Unfortunately that means that the bread tends to go even a little faster.

So are you ready for totally easy?
Here you go.

1/2 C. butter
1/4 C. honey
1/4 C. powder sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Whip butter for 30 seconds.  Add powdered sugar, honey and cinnamon and beat until smooth. (Okay I'm not going to lie I just threw everything in together and just mixed it all until it was smooth and it worked just fine too.)

Yep that's it!
Also just so you know several of the other recipes I saw called for much more honey / powder sugar to the amount of butter.  But this is sweet enough I can't imagine adding more sweet to this.

Of course the first time I had this I think I only had about 3 slices in one sitting.  I've tried very hard to slow that down but really I should just go to the gym instead so I can keep eating it!
