I love coffee. I also love cinnamon coffee. Vanilla coffee too. I put cream in my coffee. Why not combine them all for a homemade cinnamon vanilla coffee creamer? Plus I can save money!
So you’re probably wondering why Madagascar bourbon vanilla and Vietnamese cinnamon. Quite simply, they are really good ingredients. Nielsen Massey Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla is creamy, sweet and mellow, making it perfect for a creamer. The flavor of Vietnamese cinnamon just pops. It gives things through and through cinnamon flavor.
As I’ve said in other posts, use the best quality ingredients you can afford. When Nielsen Massey contacted me and offered the vanilla I knew I wanted a recipe were the vanilla would shine, like this coffee creamer. Not buried in a baked good, though many crossed my mind.
Now, you may notice that there is no sweetened condensed milk in my creamer version. Many you find it included in others around the web. I deliberately chose not to add it because I don’t like sugar in my coffee. It’s that simple. If you like sugar in your coffee, add it to taste after the creamer. If you’re somewhat adventurous make a double or triple batch and use it for making French toast. Do you enjoy other coffee drinks? Why not try my caramel coffee.
Need something to go along with your coffee?
Easy Pumpkin Spice Pull-Apart Bread with Vanilla Glaze and Fresh Blueberry Coffee Cake are two nice options.

I’m with you. I don’t like sugar in my coffee. Bourbon, on the other hand, I can handle. lol. This looks like a great creamer recipe and I appreciate the share!
Elaine Benoit says
Mmm. That looks and sounds delicious! I don’t like sugar in my creamer either so, it’s perfect that you didn’t add sweetened condensed milk!
Stephanie says
Wow. This sounds perfect. I usually just use half & half in my coffee and never thought about those additions for a treat. Will be giving this a try.

Ellen, now *this* is more like it! I don’t like sugar in my coffee, so your version with half and half is much more to my liking. I always turn down vanilla flavored coffee drinks because it’s usually artificial vanilla. Your creamer with real cream and real high-quality vanilla and cinnamon is a whole ‘nother matter!
