Pumpkin Pie Spice

Why did I ever buy pumpkin pie spice when it is this easy to make?!?!  I ran out today as I was making some muffins.  After panicking for a minute, I realized that I had all the spices that go in to pumpkin pie spice at home.  So I played with mixing the spices in varying proportions (it was very scientific!).  The recipe below is what I settled on.  I listed everything in teaspoons so it is easy to scale up if you want to make a larger batch.

Ingredients

6 tsp ground cinnamon

2 tsp of ground nutmeg

4 tsp ginger powder

2 tsp ground allspice

1 tsp ground cloves

Directions

1. Mix everything together.  Store in a spice jar or glass bottle.
