Cinnamon Twirl with Cinnamon Sugar
Who does not like the smell
of cinnamon? I for one is game for all thing that smells of cinnamon. Cinnamon
is used for both sweet and savory food. All kind of dishes use cinnamon. Indian,
Turkish, Egyptian, and American to Persian- name it and there is a special
place for cinnamon everywhere. However, cinnamon with sugar and baking is a
winning combination.
This is a bread based sweet
snack made with cinnamon. However, it can also be made with sweetener and made
suitable for people with sugar intolerance as well as people with heart
problem. This recipe is very versatile: as long as the bread base is right, it can
be custom made to suit any one.
I made my one for a picnic
to be eaten as finger food. You can make it for high tea, breakfast , evening
snacks or to be served as finger food before dinner.
