1.5 ounces SERVINGS

Ingredients

3 tablespoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground allspice
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cloves

Directions

Put the spices in a small bowl and stir to combine.

Transfer mixture to a repurposed spice jar with lid (don’t use something that used to store garlic, curry, onion powder, or similar) or use a small glass canning jar or container with a lid.Tip: To transfer spice mixture into jar, place the mixture on a creased sheet of parchment paper and carefully slide it in, or use a funnel.Spice mixture will keep airtight at room temperature for many months. Check with each usage to make sure it’s fresh and fragrant, especially if you typically bake with pumpkin pie spice on a seasonal basis only.
