Used cinnamon bits instead of grounded? will they choke?
I didn't ground up my cinnamon but just chop them up into bits of about 0.6cm each. Will my folks choke on my cinnamon apple muffins?

Yes they could possibly get stuck in the throat, go down hard, be very crunchy and spicy. Cinnamon is meant to be ground not chopped. It is like eating bark off the tree. Hello!!
probably not . but they might turn out very crunchy and spicy!
No, they will just get a horribly strong burst of cinnamon when they bite into the chunks.
You should grind them first, rather than using straight bits. They are bark and can be crunchy and unpleasant to bit into to. Use a coffee grinder or you can use a mortar and pestle.
