Tahini with cinnamon is sesame paste blended with ground cinnamon. It can be bought ready-made or mixed at home, and is commonly used as a spread, dip, or topping.
Stir ground cinnamon into plain tahini until evenly blended. Add the cinnamon gradually and taste as you go; honey or date syrup can be mixed in if you want a sweeter spread.
Tahini with cinnamon tastes nutty and slightly bitter, with a warm, sweet-smelling spice note. The balance varies with the amount of cinnamon, so a strongly spiced version can taste less sesame-forward.
Spread tahini with cinnamon on toast, spoon it over porridge, or drizzle it on sliced fruit. It also works as a dip; loosen it with a little water if you want a thinner consistency.
Yes, tahini with cinnamon pairs especially well with apples, bananas, and pears. The creamy sesame paste balances the fruit's sweetness, making it an easy topping for a snack or breakfast bowl.
Yes, tahini with cinnamon can be added to cookie dough, cakes, or baked oats. It can also be swirled on top before baking; its thick texture may make a batter denser.
Oil can rise to the surface of tahini with cinnamon because sesame paste naturally separates during storage. This is usually normal; stir thoroughly from the bottom of the jar before serving.
Keep tahini with cinnamon tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Refrigerate a homemade batch if you need to store it longer; chilling can make the paste firmer and harder to spread.
Yes, tahini with cinnamon can be stirred into plain yogurt for a creamy, nutty topping or dip. Mix it in gradually, since the paste is thick, and add fruit or a little honey if desired.
No, tahini with cinnamon does not need added sugar. Cinnamon adds aroma rather than much sweetness, so you can enjoy it plain or sweeten it with honey, date syrup, or fruit to taste.

Tahini with cinnamon combines tahini—a thick paste made from ground sesame seeds—with fragrant cinnamon. Tahini is common across the Middle East and Mediterranean, where it is used in both savoury dishes and sweets; this sweet-spiced version is an easy addition to breakfast or a snack.
Its texture is smooth and rich, with a nutty, lightly roasted sesame flavour warmed by cinnamon. Spread it on toast, swirl it into porridge or yoghurt, or drizzle a little over sliced fruit. It is energy-dense and rich in fats, with 53.5 g of fat per 100 g, so a modest spoonful usually goes a long way. Pair it with fruit or whole-grain bread for a simple, filling bite.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
