Ingredients Highlights
Often called “true” cinnamon, Ceylon cinnamon is rich in antioxidants and supports healthy blood sugar balance while adding a warm, sweet flavor.
Cloves are a tiny but powerful spice that lends a bold, warming flavor to recipes. They’re packed with antioxidants, vitamin K, manganese and other compounds that support oral health and digestion.
Coconut sugar is a natural sweetener made from coconut palm sap. It contains trace minerals and offers a lower glycemic alternative to refined sugar.
Nutmeg is a fragrant spice with antioxidants and trace minerals that has long been used to add depth and comfort to both sweet and savory recipes.
Oats are a hearty whole grain rich in fiber and important minerals like manganese and phosphorus which help support steady energy and digestive health. While oats are technically gluten-free because they aren’t a type of wheat, barley, or rye grain, look for oats that are certified gluten-free if you have celiac or a gluten sensitivity.
Pears are naturally sweet and hydrating. They provide fiber, vitamin C, and beneficial plant compounds that support digestion and overall wellness.
