Here's a classic treat made healthy - check out this deicious Cookies & Cream Cinnamon Bowl with our new True Ceylon Cinnamon!
This recipe is by the lovely vegan blogger, Amanda from Sweden.
Did you know that not all Cinnamon is "True Cinnamon"? š Most cinnamon products sold in shops are actually its cousin Cassia - a much cheaper and lower quality variety that has a dodgy compound called coumarin, making it potentially unsafe to take in pregnancy and with certain medications. True Ceylon Cinnamon - like ours - is a much higher quality variety that doesn't have side effects, is safe to take for everyone and has a more refined and smooth tasteš.ā
Over to you, Amanda!
