Heavenly Pumpkin Pie Spice

This mix comes closest to my favourite store-bought pumpkin pie spice. Because I like to use it so often, I buy the individual spices in the bulk food section, then mix up a jar of it. Its less expensive than purchasing the little tins of name-brand spice mix, and you can stir up as little as or as much as you like at one time.

• Ready In: 2 mins
• Yields: 2/3 cup approx.

Ingredients

• 4  tablespoons cinnamon
• 2  tablespoons ginger
• 2  tablespoons nutmeg
• 1  tablespoon allspice
• 1  tablespoon clove

Directions

1. Simply stir these spices together well and store in a small airtight jar or old spice container that will hold about 6 oz.
2. Sprinkle some onto your coffee grounds before you start the coffeemaker every morning -- it lends a wonderful aroma.
3. You can also mix this with some white sugar, as you would cinnamon-sugar, to sprinkle on your buttered toast etc.
4. Use it in any sweet baking -- its heavenly!
