Pumpkin Pie Spice

Pumpkin Pie Spice is super simple to make with just a few pantry spices. Homemade pumpkin pie spice is the best to have on hand for all of your favorite fall baking recipes.

As the temperatures cool off and the leaves start to change it is time to get in the kitchen and start baking. Holiday baking is my favorite and pumpkin pie spice is a must-have addition to everything from pumpkin bread to the classic pumpkin pie.

Ingredients for Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice:

  • Ground Cinnamon
  • Ground Ginger
  • Grated Nutmeg

You can adjust the ratios of the spices to create a milder version by using more cinnamon or more zesty by adding more ginger and cloves. It's so simple to make it to your own tastes. 

How to Make Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice:

  • Give it a good mixing by using a whisk. Store in a lidded jar or air tight container. As with all spices, keep in a cabinet or pantry and it will stay fresh about 6 months. 

Back when we had our own barbecue sauce business, we also made spice blends and I still enjoy coming up with my own instead of paying extra for the premixed versions from the grocery store. Plus if you make it yourself, you know exactly what goes into it.

Recipes Using Pumpkin Spice:

Easy Pumpkin Bread is my absolute favorite pumpkin recipe, I actually enjoy making this all year long. It's seriously easy and doesn't even require a mixer!

Pumpkin Pie Bars are my twist on the classic Thanksgiving dessert. I use a shortbread crust and these bars are perfect for feeding a crowd.

No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecakes are crazy-delicious and so simple to make. If you need a last minute holiday dessert, this one is just the ticket.

Of course every fall gathering requires a Pumpkin Roll and my family goes crazy for this Pumpkin Pecan Crisp
