Add the ground beef to the onion mixture and stir until the beef breaks up and is browned. Add the chili powder, cinnamon and salt and stir for one minute. Add the chopped tomatoes, beans and corn, then lower the heat to medium low and let the chili simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve in a bowl and top with shredded cheese and sour cream.
