Homemade pumpkin pie spice
My favorite season is finally here, and I just made the largest batch of pumpkin spice to use in my bakes and cocktails! I love making my own homemade spice mixes, they’re so easy to make, I can control how much of each spice goes into the mix, and it saves me a lot of money.
A small jar of pumpkin pie spice will cost you about a dollar to make, while if you buy it from the store, it will cost you $4-5! So think about how much money you’re saving when you make your own spice blend at home.
What is pumpkin pie spice?
