I just received my sprinkles and I wanted to try different recipes using them. Any suggestions?
 
I too would love some... have both flavors and have never used them. Bought them last fall!
 
My daughters (ages 6 and 4) LOVE the cinnamon sprinkles in pancakes. I add about a tablespoon and a half to some pancake mix and they devour them. My one year old likes them too but doesn't get them as often as the girls. They request them almost every morning for breakfast.
 
Wow! I go through them so quickly!I use them at shows to make cinnamon or caramel Biscuit Bites. Melt 4 tbls. of butter in 10" skillet, sprinkle in about 2 Tbls of Brown Sugar, and 2-3 Tbls of sprinkles. Open a can of Grands Biscuits (8 count) and quarter them. Place them in the skillet and toss with butter/sprinkle mixture until coated. Bake @ 375 for 16-18 minutes.I use them at home in:Pancakes,
Yogurt,
over Ice Cream,
in Banana Bread, Pumpkin Bread, Apple Bread....etc...(muffins too!),
Oatmeal,
Cream of Wheat,
Cream of Rice,
Add them to streusel over the top of Apple Crisp
In Apple Pie
Make Baked Apples with them - add equal parts butter, brown sugar and sprinkles, core the apples, stuff with butter/sprinkles & bake! YUMMY!Oh - and of course in cinnamon rolls!eta: Since Oct. - I have sold 71 bottles of Caramel Sprinkles & 55 bottles of Cinnamon. Every time I do the biscuit bites, I sell several bottles!

I make Cinnamon bites at every show, and sell so much of the sprinkles it's ridiculous! I also dress them up by making some frosting with a cup of powdered sugar, a few teaspoons of milk, and a 1/2 tsp or so of our vanilla. Then I use the zester/scorer to add some orange zest on it, and then they are all fancy and gourmet. Everyone LOVES them! Serve these puppies on a Simple Additions medium square and you've got quite the set of products going! I usually sell mini-whippers (used to make the frosting), zester/scorers , and our vanilla along with the spices when I prepare the bites that way. Now if only I'd sell some of the 8" sauté pans too!

Great idea to make the frosting! I'll have to try that!

I use the 10" saute pan for mine - and pass around the 8". I seem to sell them that way, and now that the 10" is open stock, I've been getting bookings for that at 1/2 price.

I serve them on the Dots Plate, with the small bamboo tongs for serving.
 
I add them to all desserts I make.

The Warm Nutty Brownie is even more sinly with the sprinkles and the Strawberry Trifle that is in the current book is SOOOOO better with sprinkles added to each layer.
 
The Sweet Cinnamon Sprinkles make the best cinnamon toast of all time.I also add either one to most any dessert. Crumbles, buckles, and the like are great with a sprinkle of whichever one compliments the flavor best.
