Pumpkin pie spice
A pre-mixed blend of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and clove — despite the name, it contains no pumpkin. A shortcut for the warm-spice flavor in pumpkin pie, lattes, and fall baking.
Used for
- pumpkin pie
- baking
- lattes
- spiced desserts
In the kitchen
- whisk into batter with dry ingredients
- sprinkle over whipped cream or lattes
- mix your own from cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and clove if out
Picking it at the store
- It's just a spice blend — you likely already have the components to make your own if you're out and it's fall
- Ratios vary by brand; taste-test the blend before doubling down in a recipe that leans heavily on it
