Freshly Ground Cinnamon - Taste the Difference
Freshly Ground Cinnamon - Taste the Difference
Cinnamon in the batter equals love in the oven!
Cinnamon, a beloved spice known for its warm, sweet flavor, has been cherished for centuries for its culinary and medicinal properties. Packed with powerful antioxidants, cinnamon may help reduce inflammation, improve heart health, and support balanced blood sugar levels. Studies suggest that cinnamon’s active compound, cinnamaldehyde, may have antibacterial and antiviral effects, making it a popular natural remedy for boosting immunity. Additionally, cinnamon is a good source of fiber, calcium, and manganese, which collectively contribute to overall wellness. Incorporating cinnamon into your diet is a delicious way to enjoy both its rich flavor and its potential health benefits.
Grinding cinnamon fresh in your Thermomix not only unlocks its robust, aromatic flavor but also helps retain more of its beneficial oils and nutrients. Freshly ground cinnamon has a stronger, more vibrant taste, perfect for elevating homemade dishes, smoothies, and baked goods. Using a Thermomix for grinding cinnamon is easy and efficient, allowing you to go from whole cinnamon sticks to a fine, fresh powder in seconds. Unlike pre-ground cinnamon, which can lose potency over time, freshly ground cinnamon delivers a richer aroma and more concentrated health benefits. Grinding your own cinnamon at home in the Thermomix means you get the freshest spice with maximum flavor and health potential. Your own freshly ground cinnamon will last longer than the pre-ground variety as quite often when you purchase ground cinnamon it has been ground literally years in the past!
We absolutely love cinnamon in both sweet and savoury recipes, it adds something special to most sweet baked goods but I have linked a few of our absolute favourite recipes starring cinnamon here. Give them a go, with your own fresh cinnamon of course!
