Making cinnamon sugar is incredibly easy and requires only two ingredients: cinnamon and granulated sugar. Here’s a simple recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. The ratio is typically 1 part ground cinnamon to 4 parts granulated sugar, but you can adjust the proportions to suit your taste preferences.
-
Mix Thoroughly: Use a fork or whisk to thoroughly mix the cinnamon and sugar together until well combined. Make sure there are no clumps of cinnamon and that the mixture is evenly distributed.
-
Store: Transfer the cinnamon sugar mixture to an airtight container or small jar for storage. It will keep for several months if stored in a cool, dry place away from heat and moisture.
That’s it! Your homemade cinnamon sugar is ready to use. Sprinkle it over toast, pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, or any other baked goods for a deliciously sweet and aromatic touch. You can also use it to top muffins, cookies, or even to rim the glass of a cocktail for a flavorful twist. Enjoy!
