Pumpkin Pie Spice
Grinding Your Own Option
My Little Blue Heron
Whisk these spices together and you’ll have perfect pumpkin pie spice. Freshly grated nutmeg makes a difference.
And if you can grind your own: whole allspice and cloves, you will notice a remarkable difference. If you don't have a spice grinder, dedicate a coffee grinder (not a burr one) for spices. This one is good because it has a removable bowl - easy. I own this one, and it's good, too. If you're getting serious about grinding your own spices to make masalas, try this one. I have it, and it's great. There are less expensive models that I'm sure do the trick, too!
On Amazon .. always look for deals ("used like new"), and I think "Black Friday" is nigh.
This mixture is aromatic and wonderful. Use it wherever you crave the taste of pumpkin pie.
If you're looking for a great resource for spices, try Penzeys. Their spices are top shelf, and they're good people.
Once you have a spice grinder, check out my post from 2021 for different masala recipes!
Make this fresh every season.
peace, love and warmth,
