Healthy Cinnamon Sugar (keto)
Description
The Healthy Cinnamon Sugar (keto) recipe provides a set of three mixes constructed primarily from a low-carb granular sweetener combined with cinnamon, varying in cinnamon strength from a light to a strong presence. The strongest version includes freshly ground nutmeg to add warmth and complexity. These blends are made by mixing the ingredients thoroughly, then storing them in airtight containers to maintain freshness and flavor balance. The cinnamon-sugar mix can be used liberally on breakfast items such as toast or oatmeal or incorporated into beverages as a gentle sweetener and spice combination. Preparing small batches or separate containers of each blend allows for easy selection of sweetness and spice intensity to suit different needs or recipes. The focus is on low-carb, granular sweeteners suitable for ketogenic eating plans, ensuring the recipe aligns with dietary restrictions while offering familiar cinnamon sugar taste.

Strongest Version

Cinnamon-Nutmeg Blend
- 1 cup low-carb sweetener
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (freshly ground recommended)
Instructions
- Place ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
- Store in an airtight container (if you are making all three blends, you could have a small container of each :-)).
- Sprinkle on anything where you might like a nice sweet topping (toast, oatmeal, coffee (coffee substitute for me), etc. This would also be the perfect topping on my Pumpkin Snickerdoodles if you'd like to vary the topping a bit.
