Easy Pumpkin Pie Spice Recipe. I use ground cinnamon, ginger, cloves and nutmeg. Sometimes I add a in a bit of mace and all spice for variation or for a festive spice blend. This recipe is very flexible. Adjust the amounts as you prefer. If you like it cinnamony, add more cinnamon, add more or less ginger and so on. Use it in Pumpkin Spice muffins, Latte, Pumpkin Caramel, Shortbread cookies, fall breakfast Loafs and more.
Generally I eyeball and add the spices if I don’t have a premade mix. When I do make a mix, I make a smaller quantity to use up within the month. Freshly ground nutmeg adds a deeper flavor profile.
