Method
 

How to Make Pecan Butter Board
  1. Prepare Butter Base: Start by taking your softened salted butter and smear it generously onto a wooden board. Aim for a thickness of about ¼ to ⅓ inch for the perfect creamy texture.
  2. Add Toppings: Next, sprinkle the chopped glazed pecans, ground cinnamon, and allspice evenly over the butter. This will not only enhance the flavors but also make your board visually inviting.
  3. Drizzle Honey: Then, generously drizzle honey across the top of the butter, ensuring it reaches all edges and corners for a delightful sweetness in every bite.
  4. Finish Touches: Now, sprinkle flake salt over the top and arrange warm or lightly toasted bread around the butter. Fill in any gaps with extra pecans for a beautiful display.
  5. Serve: Finally, present your stunning Pecan Butter Board with a butter knife, inviting guests to scoop their favorite combinations onto the bread or vegetables.
