What is cinnamon sugar made of?
Please do not laugh! Many genuinely ask this issue, and I believe it is because it is becoming difficult to locate foods with few and basic components.
Thus, to answer your query, it is just cinnamon and sugar. To be specific, ground cinnamon and granulated sugar.
Do not just place a cinnamon stick in some white sugar and cross your fingers.
As much as I like the nostalgic effect of the Domino Sugar N Cinnamon bottles, they are very simple to manufacture yourself.
What is the best ratio of cinnamon to sugar?
4 cup granulated sugar is the ideal ratio. Personally, I find that 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon for every 1 cup of sugar works well.
4 cup granulated sugar. 1 tablespoon = 2 tablespoons If you want a sweeter, less powerful cinnamon taste, decrease that to 1 teaspoon.
How to make cinnamon sugar
Step 1: Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Step 2: Whisk everything together, then transfer to a container with a tight-fitting cover.
Storage
Keep your cinnamon sugar in a tightly sealed container, ideally glass, in a cold, dry area. I like to use little Weck jars or mason jars (because I have just so many).
If you have a store-bought container like McCormick or Domino, just refill it with your new combination!
What can I use cinnamon sugar for?
The quick answer is: a lot.
Yet, at our home, we utilize it for:
- buttered bread as a topping Our favorite food is cinnamon sugar toast!
- rolling snickerdoodle dough (as a child, I named them cinnamon sugar cookies) or maple bacon snickerdoodle dough
- sprinkle over homemade oatmeal
- doughnuts with apple cider glaze
- rimming apple cider mimosa glasses
- using into the apple strudel monkey bread filling
- adding to candied pecan coating
- sprinkling some on top of a cup of gingerbread ice cream
- sprinkle over the already decadent twice-baked sweet potatoes
