Pumpkin Pie Spice {recipe}

by Milehimama on October 3, 2012

What is in pumpkin pie spice?

I recently bought a little jar and was surprised to see what was lurking in my pumpkin pie spices.

What? Sulfiting agents? Yeah, I don’t want to eat those. It’s easy to make pumpkin pie spice yourself.

3 Tbsp. cinnamon

2 tsp. allspice

2 tsp. ginger

1 1/2 tsp. nutmeg

1 1/2 tsp. cloves

Mix it together and enjoy!

My current favorite pumpkin pie spice recipe is Pumpkin Spice Syrup – to make a Pumpkin Spice Latte, of course!

You’re on Day 3 of 31 Days of PUMPKINS! What will I make tomorrow?

Thanks for sharing this! I’ve been making my own pumpkin spice ever since I developed an allergy to nutmeg! You can also use it in baked apple dishes, as it’s pretty much the same thing.

My most recent post is also about cooking with pumpkin, and it includes a link to my recipe for pumpkin syrup: http://trialanderrorhomeec.blogspot.com/2012/10/pumpkins.html

  My husband is not a ginger fan, so I make this “light” in that spice. And I use it in tea and other dishes, too!

Thank you for sharing at the Frugal Tuesday Tip. http://juliecache.com/2012/10/01/frugal-tuesday-tip-october-is-here/.html

I’ve been using the same ingredients, but haven’t made a syrup with them — I just stir everything in the bottom of my cup, add the coffee and add the cream — your way is probably faster on a daily basis.
