Questions about Cinnamon sugar

What is cinnamon sugar, and how do you make it?

It is granulated or caster sugar mixed with ground cinnamon. Stir them together in a small bowl, breaking up any lumps, then use straight away or store the mixture in a dry, airtight jar.

What can you sprinkle cinnamon sugar on?

Try it on hot buttered toast, porridge, pancakes or French toast. It also makes a simple topping for doughnuts, rice pudding and baked apples.

Can you use cinnamon sugar instead of cinnamon in baking?

Not as a straight swap: cinnamon sugar adds sweetness as well as spice. If a recipe calls for ground cinnamon, use that; if you use cinnamon sugar, reduce the recipe’s sugar to compensate.

How should you store cinnamon sugar?

Keep it in a tightly sealed jar in a cool, dry cupboard. Use a dry spoon so moisture does not make the sugar clump.

What can you use instead of cinnamon sugar?

Mix a little ground cinnamon into caster or granulated sugar. For a topping, stir it together just before sprinkling so the spice is evenly distributed.

Is cinnamon sugar the same as ground cinnamon?

No. Ground cinnamon is just the spice, while cinnamon sugar is a sweetened mixture, so it tastes milder and adds sugar to whatever you sprinkle it on.
