A SIMPLE HOMEMADE SPICE RECIPE
This is one of my favorite times of year! All of these desserts with this warm mixture of spices – so good! Pumpkin Pie Spice is pretty similar to apple pie spice. The main difference is my version of apple pie spice contains cardamom and pumpkin pie spice doesn’t contain cardamom (usually). But you can actually interchange the two if necessary since they are so similar. This is a wonderful combination of flavors that will really elevate your fall baked goods!
I think this was one of the best pumpkin pie spices I’ve tried. It’s perfectly blended!
