Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp Ground Cinnamon (high-quality Ceylon or Saigon recommended)
- 2 Tbsp Ground Ginger
- 1 Tbsp Ground Nutmeg (preferably freshly grated)
- 1 tsp Ground Allspice
- 1 tsp Ground Cloves
Instructions:
- Precisely measure all five specified spice ingredients using standardized spoons and cups. Ensure measurements are level, especially for potent spices like cloves.
- Transfer the measured cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves into a small mixing bowl.
- Using a small whisk or fork, vigorously stir the mixture for 60 to 90 seconds. Continue mixing until the spices are fully incorporated and the blend achieves a single, uniform color and texture without visible clumps.
- Optional: Taste a small pinch of the blend and adjust flavor ratios if necessary.
- Carefully transfer the finished Pumpkin Pie Spice blend into a sterilized, airtight glass jar or container.
- Seal the container tightly and label with the date. Store in a cool, dark pantry away from direct heat and moisture.
