Cinnamon Sugar

December 23, 2015 By Anna Leave a Comment

Cinnamon Sugar can make a lot of dishes taste better. You can sprinkle it on top of your pancakes or use it to sweeten your fruit. I even love to use it as the finishing touch on some of my baked goods! Whatever you like to use it for, make sure you have some in your spices cabinet. Are you looking for more ingredients to make yourself? Select [Homemade] under [Meals] on [the recipe page].

Know What You Eat

Both when buying food or when making your own, it is important to inform yourself about the nutritional value. Have a look at the nutrition label, learn about your serving size and what nutrients this product will bring to the table.

If you want to compare different products and their values, it is easier to look at a label where the values are given per 100 grams. This way you get a better understanding of the categories certain products belong to when it comes to nutritional values. Is this a product with a high sugar content? Does it contain a lot of fibre? How does this product measure up if I am looking to stick to a low-sodium diet?

Keep in mind that if you are looking to eat healthily, you should not just avoid eating fat and/or sugar. We need both in our daily diet. Make sure however to be aware of where you get your lipids and sugars from. As a rule of thumb, you could say; variation is very important in your diet and in general, the closer your food is to come straight from the source, the better.

*All given nutritional information is an indication. Due to differences in how ingredients are produced, where they are purchased and how the recipe is prepared, nutritional values may vary.
