I like that face that this recipe includes whole wheat flour, applesauce and cinnamon. There have been many studies that determine cinnamon to be linked with lowering your cholesterol and regulating blood sugar. It is an inexpensive and wonderful spice to add to many foods or sauces. You can also purchase a pill form.
