Paleo Buttercream Icing Recipe

Paleo Buttercream Icing Recipe


  • Author: Caroline Fausel

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup salted butter (or ghee) at room temperature

1 cup palm shortening*

1 cup white honey**

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup arrowroot starch


Instructions

  1. Mix together butter, palm shortening, honey, and vanilla in a mixer using the beater attachment.
  2. Slowly add arrowroot powder until combined.

Notes

*I suggest this Spectrum brand of palm oil because it is both fair trade and sustainably harvested.

**I suggest a white honey like the one I linked above because it has a less intense honey flavor in comparison to a standard wildflower honey.

If you’re going to be decorating, and you want the whitest color possible, remove the vanilla and opt for another extract like almond instead.
