how do you make fresh ground cinammon?

Answer 1

1. Buy cinnamon sticks at the grocery store.
2. Grind 'em up with a mortar and pestle, a blender, or a coffee grinder.

Answer 2

Take one jar of cinnamon sticks, put in spice grinder. Grind. But, it doesn't taste as good as the preground stuff. Best answer is to buy a fresh jar of the highest quality ground stuff you can get, and use that.

Answer 3

I recommend that you buy the cinnamon preground. I use to work in a spice grinding plant and you can never grind it fine enough at home. Also the cinnamon used in cinnamon sticks is usually from a lower grade cinnamon plant. When buying preground the darker cinnamon is the higher grade.

Answer 4

Basically, just get cinammon sticks. Place it in a ziploc bag and zip it tightly. Make sure all air is gone. Then crush it, using a book, plate, whatever you want!
