One of my favorite spices in the whole world is cinnamon. I put it in everything as long as its sweet- ice cream, on top of whipped cream, desserts, and even on top of my coffee. I love the smell of cinnamon too; it makes everything smell better and taste better. It gives desserts that accent that you never thought they need. I always have a bottle of cinnamon powder in the pantry ready for my consumption. My husband finds it amusing that I put it in almost everything… until I remind him that he’s addicted to it as much as I am.
Cinnamon is actually one of the same things we have in common. We used to eat breakfast together at a bakery near the university and share a piece of cinnamon bun. We always paired it off with a cup of joe, of course.
Cinnamon is a constant in my dessert recipes, but I rarely use it for savory dishes. I never felt right in using it even though technically, I can. Cinnamon has always been a dessert spice for me.
Until I came across this slow cooker chicken and vegetables recipe. After trying this for my family, I will never underestimate the versatility of cinnamon ever again. This dish proves that cinnamon is one amazing spice that can be used in ANY dish.
