10 Cinnamon Recipes to Swoon Over

Cinnamon is a prized spice throughout the year, but when holiday season hits your cinnamon consumption likely spikes. The hustle and bustle of holiday shopping and music goes hand in hand with the smell of cinnamon.

Cinnamon adds a hint of warmth to every recipe it is a part of. Plus, it should win a gold medal for all of its positive health effects.
