Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice Recipe
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.

I noticed in the body text it said “Ground cinnamon (8 parts), Ground ginger (2 part), Ground nutmeg (1 part), Ground cloves (2 part)” — then in the bottom detailed recipe section, it calls for “4 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground cloves”. Should the nutmeg be 1/2 tsp and the cloves 1 tsp based on the text? Thanks in advance for clarifying!
