I am making bread that needs 1tsp nutmeg and 1 1/2tsp Cinnamon so i want to try the Cinnamon Plus but how much do i use? Do i add them together or ?
 
yes, use 2 1/2 tsp of the blend
 
The Cinnamon Plus is a blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and other spices, so you can use it as a replacement for both the nutmeg and cinnamon in your bread recipe. Since the recipe calls for 1tsp nutmeg and 1 1/2tsp cinnamon, you can use 2 1/2 teaspoons of Cinnamon Plus in total. You can either add it all together at once or add a little at a time and adjust to taste. Happy baking!
