- I found this on a blog called living on food stamps. Although its not pumpkin pie season I wanted to post this so I could have it on file if and when I need it. These are her words, not mine.
- Pumpkin Pie Spice is obscenely expensive. And we are fast approaching Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin Bread, Pumpkin 'Everything' season so whattaya do (that was a rhetorical question)? I'll tell you what I did: I went to a Dollar Store and bought 2 oz. jars of each: Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Ginger, All Spice & Ground Clove for $1 each.
- Total: 10 oz. of spices for $5. 1.12 oz. For $4.98 This is what pumpkin pie spice costs where she lives.
- Pumpkin Pie Spice #1
- 1/4 cup cinnamon
- 1 Tbsp. allspice
- 1 1/2 tsp. each ginger and nutmeg
- 1 tsp. cloves
- #2 Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1/4 cup ground cinnamon
- 1/8 cup ground ginger
- 1 Tablespoon nutmeg
- 1 Tablespoon ground cloves
- #3 Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1/4 cup ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom (optional)
- Apple Pie Spice
- 1/4 cup ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp ground allspice
- 2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom (optional)
- Combine all ingredients and seal in ziploc or vacuum seal bag (or jar). I like to quadruple the recipe & store it in a Jelly Canning Jar. Let me know what you think.
