Notes

How to Store 

Cinnamon sugar can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for several months, making it a convenient pantry staple. However, keeping it away from moisture and direct sunlight is essential to maintain its flavor and texture.

Make-Ahead

Cinnamon sugar is a great make-ahead ingredient that can save you time in the kitchen. To prepare it ahead of time, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in an airtight container and store it at room temperature for several months. You can also prepare a larger batch of cinnamon sugar and store it in a sealed bag or container in the freezer for up to 6 months. This is an excellent option for quick and easy breakfasts or snacks if you want cinnamon sugar on hand.

When ready to use your pre-made cinnamon sugar, remove it from the container or bag and sprinkle it over your desired food or beverage. You don't need to reheat it or do anything else to enjoy its delicious flavor and aroma. By making cinnamon sugar ahead of time, you'll save yourself the hassle of measuring the ingredients every time you want to use it. Plus, having it on hand will make it easy to add a touch of sweetness and spice to your favorite foods and drinks whenever the mood strikes.
