Cinnamon & Honey spread

Back up to: Recipes

Spread used on it's own or with Tumeric for tea


Cinnamon & Honey spread
  • 500 g or 2 cups of honey
  • 72 grams or 2/3 cup cinnamon, that is a half package where I shop.
  • I mix the cinnamon & honey with a butter knife in a 500 gram or 1 pound margarine container. When mixed & after setting a while it turns into a nice spread that pretty much fills the container.
  • I like the cinnamon & honey spread on whole grain toast for a flavorful snack.
  • Use this spread below to make a Turmeric tea.

Cinnamon historically is very healthy & also used as a breath freshener. Honey is very healthy & a great healthy natural sweet flavor.

Turmeric tea 2 variations


Tumeric Tea with the Cinnamon & Honey spread
  • 1 tsp or 5 ml or less to taste Cinnamon, Honey spread, you can use more
  • 1 tsp or 5 ml dried Turmeric
  • Put in cup & pour hot water over it. Not boiling water. Stir until dissolved. Continue to stir as you drink so nothing settles out.

Turmeric Paste
  • 1/3 cup - 80 ml good, raw honey
  • 2 1/2 tsp or 12.5 ml dried turmeric
  • Squirt of lemon or lime juice
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Mix into a paste & store in a container

Turmeric tea
  • 1 rounded tsp or 10 ml Turmeric Paste
  • Put in cup & pour hot water over it. Not boiling water. Stir until dissolved. Continue to stir as you drink so nothing settles out.

If you are going for a teaspoon of turmeric a day or per person served I find you can put it in just about anything. The taste described as earthy fits in with most flavors. Experiment.

Turmeric is both very old & historically is very healthy. Turmeric will dye most things, be careful. This turmeric tea recipe is a variation of Ayurvedic medicine
