This delightful vanilla cinnamon spread is perfect for enhancing your pancakes with a touch of sweetness and spice.
Let the butter sit at room temperature until softened.
Softened butter mixes more easily with other ingredients, ensuring a smooth spread.
Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds.
Use the back of a knife to scrape the seeds for maximum yield.
Combine the softened butter, vanilla seeds, Splenda, and cinnamon in a bowl. Mix until well blended.
Ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Shape the mixture into a log and wrap it tightly in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator until firm.
Chilling helps the spread hold its shape and makes it easier to slice.
Serve the spread with warm pancakes or your favorite breakfast items.
Allow the spread to soften slightly before serving for easier spreading.
