You can eat it or leave it if it is unpalatable. So its entirely upto you. Perosonally, I love the flavour of cooked peel. I am trying to remember if the recipe you mentioned asks to scrape out the peel or not.

As per your query, I am not much of a baker but you need unsalted butter for baking any sweet bakes or else the texture and taste if finished baked product will be much different as the store-bpught salted butter has high salt content. I remember my mom using homemade butter when making cakes.
