Place the dried culinary lavender into a small, clean jar that has a tight-fitting lid.
Using a small knife, carefully split the vanilla bean pod lengthwise down the middle, exposing the seeds inside. Add the vanilla bean pod to the jar with the lavender.
Pour the raw honey into the jar, ensuring the lavender and vanilla bean are completely submerged. Use a spoon to gently stir and combine all the ingredients.
Seal the jar tightly and set it in a cool, dark place to infuse for 7-10 days. Stir the honey every couple of days to distribute the flavor evenly.
After the infusion period, strain the honey through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into another clean jar to remove the lavender and vanilla bean (optional for smooth honey). You can also leave the vanilla bean in the honey for a stronger flavor over time.
Store the infused honey in a tightly sealed jar at room temperature for up to 6 months.
