Pumpkin Pie Spice is synonymous with the flavor of autumn and is a taste so well associated with Thanksgiving. It imparts that special favor and aroma to pies, soups, stews, roasts and salad toppings. Most recipes call for just a bit of this spice and it is comprised of spices that you probably have in your spice cabinet, anyways. So, why buy a new bottle if you can easily make just what you need?
This recipe can be used to prepare your own homemade pumpkin pie spice. It is a simple blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and ground cloves or allspice that can be easily adjusted to your taste and recipe.

Add a unique label to your pumpkin pie spice jar. Using glue stick, I adhered a custom simpletowow.com label to an empty spice jar. If you would like to print your own simpletowow spice jar label, feel free print out this pumpkin-pie-spice-label The paper label also allows you to jot down the date when you prepared the mix so that you can keep your pantry fresh and organized.
