Cinnamon sugar is delectable in everything from homemade French Toast and Oatmeal to Apple Pies and Snickerdoodle cookies. During the fall and winter season you see this cinnamon-y delightful stuff lining almost every grocery store shelf in sight. But do not be deceived!
You don’t have to buy an extra container of that store-bought cinnamon sugar if you have these 2 common baking ingredients at home: ground cinnamon and granulated sugar. If you keep these ingredients around then there is absolutely no reason you should have to spend more just to get a separate container of the pre-mixed stuff at the store.
I prefer to just make my own since I already keep plenty of sugar around for my baking recipes. All I need is some cinnamon and a mason jar and I’m all set! But I do have 1 other little tip to make the whole process mess-free. Here’s how I make sweet and simple Cinnamon Sugar!

To make simple cinnamon sugar, all you need is: cinnamon, sugar, measuring tools, a piping bag (for ease), and a mason jar. After measuring out the ingredients, cut 1 inch from the tip of a piping bag and insert it into the mason jar. Pour in the 2 ingredients, close the lid tightly, and shake well. Enjoy!

How to Store Cinnamon Sugar
Keep homemade cinnamon sugar sealed in a mason jar, or other airtight container, for up to 2 years in the pantry or at room temperature. Always make sure to label the date on the outside of the container to keep up with freshness.
