1 tablespoon of powdered cinnamon
1 teaspoon of salt from the sea

Different Types and Advice
To make it spicier, put a little bit of cayenne pepper in the butter mix. If you want a stronger vanilla taste, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the butter mixture. For a different flavor, add some finely chopped nuts like pecans or almonds on top of the crackers before baking. You can also try using different kinds of sugar, like brown sugar or coconut sugar, to give your dish a slightly different taste.
