US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the ground cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, ground allspice, and ground cloves. Stir the spices together until they are evenly blended. Use your Pumpkin Pie Spice right away in your favorite recipes, or transfer it to an airtight container for storage. The blend will stay fresh for up to 6 months when stored in a cool, dry place.
    3 tablespoons ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 2 teaspoons nutmeg, 1 ½ teaspoons ground allspice, 1 ½ teaspoons ground cloves

Notes

  • Fresh Spices Matter: Always use fresh spices for the best flavor. Old spices won’t give you that punch you’re looking for.
  • Customize the Mix: Want more of a ginger kick or extra warmth from cloves? Tweak the ratios to make it your own.
  • Versatile Blend: This spice mix isn’t just for pies! Try it in pancakes, muffins, or even sprinkled on top of your morning coffee.
  • Boost Your Coffee Game: Add a dash of this to your latte or coffee for an instant pumpkin spice latte at home.
  • Store Smartly: Keep your spice mix in an airtight container, away from heat and light, to preserve its flavor.
  • Make a Big Batch: If you love fall flavors, make a larger batch, so you have plenty on hand for baking.
  • Give it a Shake: Before using your stored mix, give it a quick shake or stir to make sure everything is evenly blended.
