What is in pumpkin pie spice?

Pumpkin pie spice is a blend of several aromatics spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and cloves. You can find all of these spices in the grocery store where you can normally also find pumpkin pie spice.

The reason we make homemade is because some grocery stores do not carry it and it also is a lot more affordable to make homemade! It will last for months in the cabinet which is perfect because we don’t always use it year round.

If you don’t have allspice or don’t want to buy a whole jar of it, you can do this recipe with no allspice. I really do think that it is better well rounded if you include the allspice, but it is a personal preference!

The spices in pumpkin spice are aromatic and warm. Using them in holiday baking will make your baked goods comforting and perfect for the season.

• cinnamon – warm, comforting spice that takes baked goods to the next level. I add cinnamon to everything.
• nutmeg – has a sweet and nutty flavor, almost peppery.
• ginger – adds a little bit of spicy flavor.
• cloves – has a pungent flavor, sometimes a little bitter and definitely warm.
• allspice – strong and spicy aroma.
