Cinnamon Infused Honey Pairings

This is a fantastic flavor combination! Cinnamon-infused wildflower honey adds a warm, spicy, and inviting depth to a huge variety of foods, covering everything from cozy breakfasts to elegant savory glazes.

Here are some of the best ways to enjoy your cinnamon-infused wildflower honey:

Savory Pairings

The wildflower honey's natural earthiness works beautifully with cinnamon in savory dishes, especially when heat is involved.

  • Cheese and Charcuterie:
    • Drizzle it over creamy, tangy cheeses like Goat Cheese (Chèvre), Brie, or even a sharp Aged Cheddar or Parmesan.
    • The warm spice of cinnamon honey is a perfect counterpoint to salty cured meats like prosciutto or crispy bacon.
  • Meats and Glazes:
    • Use it in a glaze for roasted chicken, pork tenderloin, or salmon. It pairs well with a dash of garlic, soy sauce, or a bright vinegar.
    • It's an excellent ingredient for spicy honey wings (mixed with a little hot sauce or chili paste).
  • Roasted Vegetables:
    • Toss root vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, or butternut squash with a little olive oil, salt, and cinnamon honey before roasting. The cinnamon enhances their natural sweetness.
  • Greek Appetizers:
    • Use it as a drizzle over fried or oven-roasted Feta and Fillo parcels (a classic Greek dish).

Sweet Pairings

The natural warmth of cinnamon makes it perfect for foods you want to feel comforting and familiar.

  • Breakfast Favorites:
    • Toast, Biscuits, or Scones: Spread it directly or mix it with softened butter to make a delicious Cinnamon Honey Butter (like a Texas Roadhouse copycat!).
    • Pancakes, Waffles, and French Toast: Drizzle it generously instead of plain syrup for an elevated flavor.
    • Oatmeal and Cereal: Swirl it into a bowl of hot oatmeal, cream of wheat, or cold Greek yogurt with granola and fruit.
  • Fruit and Desserts:
    • Apples and Pears: Drizzle it over sliced apples, especially with cheese, or use it to glaze roasted or baked apples and roasted pineapple.
    • Yogurt Parfaits: Layer it with Greek yogurt, granola, and fresh berries for a quick, sweet-spicy snack.
    • Baked Goods: Use it as a glaze for muffins, banana bread, or quick breads.
    • Coffee and Tea: Stir it into your morning coffee, latte, or chai tea for a spicy-sweet kick.
