How to Make Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice
This recipe has two options: small batch or large batch. If you’re not a big baker, make the small one. I always make the large batch. It yields 1/3 of a cup.
- Add all of the spices to a bowl or spice container.
- Mix it up. Easy as can be.
- Store it in an airtight container. I love to label it so it doesn’t get mixed up with my other spices.
Recipe Tip
Fresh nutmeg vs. ground nutmeg: I usually prefer to freshly grate nutmeg for desserts or a roux. But in this instance, ground nutmeg is much better and its flavor lasts a lot longer. It also creates a more cohesive spice blend.
Recipe FAQs
This spice blend, when stored in an airtight container, will last up to 3 to 6 months. It will lose some of its flavor after the sixth month.
Yes, I would say do a double batch of the large batch of this. And place it in an airtight container and label it!

Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice
Equipment
- 1 sealed jar
Ingredients
Small Batch, makes about 2 tablespoons
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg*
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Large Batch, makes about 1/3 cup
- 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons ground ginger
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
- 3/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg*
- 3/4 teaspoons ground cloves
Instructions
- To make the mix, combine all the spices in a bowl and mix with a spoon. I like to do this because there tends to be larger chunks of spices that need to be crushed up with the back of a spoon.
- Once everything is combined and there are no more lumps, add to a jar with a tight fitting lid and store for up to 3 months. The mix can last for up to 6 months but tends to lose its punch if sitting longer than 3 months.
Notes
- Fresh nutmeg vs. ground nutmeg: I usually prefer to freshly grate nutmeg for desserts or a roux. But in this instance, ground nutmeg is much better and its flavor lasts a lot longer. It also creates a more cohesive spice blend.
