Cinnamon desserts are some of my all-time favorites. The hint of spice and warmth it brings is like no other ingredient.
Did you know this tasty spice actually comes from the bark of trees in the Cinnamomum family. Who knew bark could be so delicious?!
The two most common types of cinnamon you’ll find in your local grocery stores are Ceylon cinnamon and cassia cinnamon.
Ceylon cinnamon also called “true cinnamon” is grown in Sri Lanka. It has a mild, delicate flavor, but is less common here in the US.
Cassia cinnamon, also known as “Chinese cinnamon,” is grown in you guessed it China and other parts of Asia. It has a stronger, more pungent flavor. This is what you’re likely using when you buy a container in the spice aisle.
The ground form is more convenient for most recipes but cinnamon sticks can be a fun twist. They add fresh flavor or can serve as a cute garnish.
From cakes to cookies there are so many cozy cinnamon desserts to choose from. Let’s dive in this list. Which is your favorite?
