Sawdust Spaghetti

You can add tomato sauce to this
but I like it with just bread crumbs
and a little extra-virgin olive oil.

Ingredients:
1 pound thin spaghetti
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons grated parmesan
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch oregano leaves, chopped
1 pinch salt or to taste
1 pinch black pepper

Directions:
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.
Cook the pasta according to box.
Reserve a 1/4 cup of pasta water.
Drain the pasta.
Meanwhile, add the rest of the
ingredients to a food processor.
Pulse until well combined.
Dump the crumb mixture into large skillet
set over medium-high heat. Cook,
stirring often, until the mixture is warm.
Add the pasta to the skillet.
Sprinkle a little of the pasta
water in and toss until coated.
Serve the pasta with a
drizzle of more olive oil.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
