Cinnamon & Vanilla Bean Sugar

Note: Time does not include 5–7 days of storing before using.

Slice vanilla pods down the center and, with a knife, scrape off vanilla flesh (some call it caviar). Set aside. Keep empty vanilla pods.

In a large airtight jar or container, add sugar, vanilla flesh, pods, and ground cinnamon. Secure lid and shake vigorously. Set in a dry, cool location for 5–7 days. After that time, remove pods, sift sugar over a bowl, and return cinnamon-vanilla sugar to a clear jar or container.

I love a teaspoonful of this in my morning coffee!
