Why Make Cinnamon Infused Honey?

If you’re wondering why you should make cinnamon-infused honey, it’s not just because it tastes amazing, though that’s definitely a big reason. This honey is super versatile and can be used in so many ways:

• Drizzle it on toast: especially good with butter.
• Stir it into tea or coffee: warm, spicy, and naturally sweet.
• Use it for skincare: honey is naturally soothing, and cinnamon has antimicrobial properties.
• Sweeten oatmeal or yogurt: an easy way to add flavor without refined sugar.
• Add to baked goods: imagine this in cinnamon rolls. Yes, please.

Cinnamon Infused Honey Recipe

Cinnamon-infused honey is exactly what it sounds like: honey that’s been infused with the warm, spicy flavor of cinnamon. I made it by allowing the cinnamon sticks to sit in honey for a few weeks, letting the honey absorb all the rich, aromatic essence of the cinnamon.

Ingredients:

You only need three things:

• Honey (raw if possible)
• Cinnamon sticks
• A glass container

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cinnamon

Break up your cinnamon sticks into smaller pieces. This helps release more flavor. Then fill a small glass jar about halfway with the cinnamon.

2. Add the Honey

Pour honey over the top, making sure to cover all the cinnamon. Let it slowly seep into every crevice. Use a knife or skewer to remove air bubbles.

3. Seal and Infuse

Seal the jar with a lid and let it sit for a few weeks. Flip the jar over once a day to help everything infuse evenly.

4. Strain or Enjoy As-Is

After a few weeks, you can strain out the cinnamon or leave it in, totally up to you! Either way, your cinnamon-infused honey is ready!

Notes

• You can use cinnamon powder, but you won’t be able to strain it. It will just stay in while you use it.
• The longer you let it sit, the stronger the flavor. But honestly, even after a few days, it’s already delicious.

This honey is a cozy addition to tea, coffee, oatmeal, and even baked goods! Let me know how you use it!
