Ingredients

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground allspice

Instructions

  • Add each of the spices to a small bowl.
  • Mix together well and store in a sealed jar in a cool dry place if not using immediately.

Notes

Using in recipes: Use this blend 1:1 anywhere a recipe calls for store-bought pumpkin pie spice. If a recipe lists cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and/or cloves separately, add those amounts together and use the same total amount of this blend as a starting point.
Cloves: This blend is made without ground cloves. If you like a stronger clove flavor, add a small pinch.
Scaling: To make a larger batch, keep the same 2:1:1:1 ratio of cinnamon to ginger, nutmeg, and allspice. Simply use full teaspoons or tablespoons with that ratio.
Storage: Store in an airtight jar in a cool, dark place. The blend will stay flavorful only as long as the individual spices remain fresh.
