Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix

This aromatic pumpkin pie spice mix is a versatile store-cupboard essential, perfect for bringing a warm, autumnal depth to your cooking. By blending your own spices at home, you can ensure a far more vibrant flavour than shop-bought alternatives. This particular recipe falls into our low-sugar category, providing a punchy, fragrant kick to bakes and beverages without the need for added sweeteners or fillers.

While traditionally used for classic American-style pies, this blend is equally delicious stirred into morning porridge, sprinkled over a warming latte, or used to season roasted root vegetables. Prepared in just a few minutes, it makes a thoughtful homemade gift or a handy shortcut for your seasonal baking prep. Simply store the mix in a dry, airtight jar to keep the spices at their most potent.
