MYO Pumpkin Pie Spice


   With the holidays coming, this may save you a little money! Instead of buying the expensive containers of Pumpkin Pie Spice, just make your own! 

1/4 cup ground cinnamon
1/8 cup ground ginger
1 Tablespoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons ground cloves

½ teaspoon Allspice—optional

Mix all of the above and store in a mason jar or baggie.

Easy peasy!
