Spice Up Regular Pie Crust With An Ingredient Already In Your Pantry - Tasting Table
"Just a spoonful of cinnamon powder brings natural warmth and sweetness to pie dough. This is the kind of upgrade that can bring new life to old favorite recipes. The flavor of cinnamon can hold ground when paired with more buttery or fruity fillings to make dessert pies. Your favorite pecan, apple, and sweet potato pies can truly shine when nested into a cinnamon-enhanced crust."
"Estimate mixing 1 teaspoon of cinnamon per cup of flour if you're making pie crust from scratch. You can always adjust to taste and add an additional spoonful in future recipes. If you're not sold on the idea, try the quick upgrade using leftover scraps of dough. Turn the pieces into sweet treats with a quick dusting of cinnamon and sugar before baking. Top with honey, jam, or preserves, and you'll be sold on the idea."
Sprinkling a spoonful of cinnamon into pie dough adds natural warmth and sweetness that pairs well with buttery or fruity fillings. Use approximately 1 teaspoon of cinnamon per cup of flour when making crust from scratch and adjust to taste in future batches. For store-bought crust, sprinkle cinnamon on top before baking. Leftover dough scraps can be dusted with cinnamon and sugar, baked, and topped with honey, jam, or preserves for a quick treat. Other spices like nutmeg, vanilla, cayenne, or British mixed spice can deepen flavor. For savory pies, pair cinnamon with sage, rosemary, or Herbs de Provence.
