How do I use McCormick Ground Cinnamon in everyday recipes?
Sprinkle it on oatmeal, yogurt, or toast, stir it into coffee or tea, mix it into cookie and cake batters, or use it in savory dishes like chili, roasted sweet potatoes, and dry rubs for meat or tofu.
How much cinnamon should I use per recipe?
Most baking recipes call for 1 to 2 teaspoons, while savory dishes typically use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon. Because this cinnamon is aged up to 15 years, it has a developed flavor, so you can start with less and adjust to taste.

Is the cinnamon safe to consume every day?
Yes, in normal culinary amounts. As with any spice, very high intake is not recommended, but typical everyday use in food and drinks is considered safe for healthy adults and children.
Will the cinnamon lose its flavor over time once opened?
No. The SnapTight lid creates an airtight seal, and ground cinnamon retains its flavor for a long time when stored properly in a cool, dry place.
What is the difference between ground cinnamon and cinnamon sticks?
Ground cinnamon is pre-milled and ready to use in baking and recipes, while cinnamon sticks are bark pieces typically used for steeping in liquids, mulling drinks, or as a decorative element.
