How to Make Pumpkin Pie Spice
Ever wanted to make some fall pumpkin recipes only to find out that you don’t have the pumpkin pie spice that the recipe calls for? Save yourself a trip to the store and see if you have these spices instead to make your own pumpkin spice.
If you make it yourself you can save some money because those little containers of pumpkin pie spice can be expensive.
In fact, what I really recommend doing is mixing up some of this homemade pumpkin pie spice each fall for your baking endeavors. Skip the stuff from the store! And if you haven’t made a recipe before that calls for pumpkin pie spice, you should! It wouldn’t be a real fall without it, right?! 😉
DIY Pumpkin Spice Ingredients
This pumpkin pie spice blend includes cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves.
Whenever a recipe calls for some of these same spices – cinnamon, nutmeg, etc. – you can just replace the amounts with this pumpkin pie spice blend and it will be fantastic.
Pumpkin Spice Usage Ideas
Add a pinch of pumpkin pie spice to your coffee, tea, or hot chocolate for a warm fall beverage. Or, try sprinkling some spice on your oatmeal, yogurt, popcorn, or veggies!
A cute jar of homemade pumpkin pie spice with the recipe attached would actually be a fun little homemade holiday gift for anyone that loves fall baking! You could even include some awesome magnetic measuring spoons if you want to take it up a notch.
Here are a few yummy recipes that call for pumpkin pie spice:
- Iced Pumpkin Sugar Cookies
