Make Your Own Pumpkin Spice

Pumpkin spice is one of those spices you only use certain times of the year.  You will use a few tablespoons out of your store bought and back in the cabinet it goes until next year.  Now you can make your own pumpkin spice magic at home using spices you may already have in your  pantry and it tastes better than store bought.

Your ingredients are:  3 tablespoons ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, 1 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves.

Mix together in a bowl and store in an airtight container.  This mixture will make 1/4 cup of pumpkin happiness you can use for months to come.  May you have a safe and happy Halloween trick or treating this weekend.
