Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice
Pumpkin pie spice vs pumpkin spice: same blend, two names. It's cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves, and most jars add a little allspice. If a recipe calls for one and you only have the other, swap them spoon for spoon.

For the spice blend
- 4 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
- 2 teaspoons ground allspice
- 2 teaspoons ground cloves
Add the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves to a small bowl.
Whisk for about 30 seconds, until the color is even and no clumps are left.
Spoon the blend into a small airtight jar, seal it, and write the date on the lid.
Storage: Keep it sealed in a cool, dry cupboard for up to 1 year. After that it's safe, but the flavor fades.
Pumpkin Pie: Use 1½ to 2 teaspoons for one 9-inch pie.
Swap: Use it 1:1 anywhere a recipe calls for pumpkin spice or pumpkin pie spice.
