Cinnamon Raisin Swirl

Cinnamon is one of the most popular spices in the United States—and it’s no wonder! It goes well with so many types of dishes, especially through the fall and holidays seasons. What’s another thing that cinnamon goes well with? Raisins, of course! Together, these two flavors are the perfect complement to each other. And luckily, you can find this perfect pair in the form of Martin’s Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Potato Bread!

Along with tasting great, cinnamon and raisins both have many possible health benefits. Cinnamon has large amounts of antioxidants. Couple the antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties, and it has the potential to reduce the risk of heart disease and diabetes as well as protect against various diseases and infections. Raisins also contain antioxidants, fiber, and sources of energy through vitamins and minerals.

In addition to the above, Martin’s Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Potato Bread has many great qualities of its own. Like all Martin’s roll and bread products, it has no high fructose corn syrup, artificial dyes, or azodicarbonamide, and is non-GMO. It also has no trans-fat or cholesterol and contains B vitamins, calcium, and iron.
