Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice Recipe
Description
The recipe involves combining a quarter cup of ground cinnamon with smaller amounts of ground ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Once mixed thoroughly, this blend becomes a versatile and ready-to-use seasoning for pumpkin pies, baked goods, and other dishes requiring traditional autumn spice notes. The warmth from cinnamon and cloves balances the sharpness of ginger and the earthiness of nutmeg.
This spice mix can be made ahead and stored up to three months in a cool, dark place to preserve freshness. If ground cloves are not available, ground allspice can be used as an alternative. The simple blend saves time when cooking seasonal recipes.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoons cloves ground
Instructions
- Add all the dry spices to a medium-size bowl.
- Using a fork or a whisk mix everything until combined. Use, or cover and store.
Notes
- Make the spice blend up to one month in advance for convenience.
- Store in a covered container in a cool, dark place to maintain flavor up to three months.
- Substitute ground allspice if ground cloves are unavailable.
