You might have seen this spice in many fall recipes (SUCH AS PSLS) so obviously it is essential. BUT it can get really pricey if you buy it, so you might as well make it.
Pumpkin spice is very easy to make and you most likely have most, if not all, the ingredients. I used the recipe by Betty Crocker and it has not disappointed me.
3 Tablespoons Ground Cinnamon
2 teaspoons Ground Ginger
2 teaspoons Nutmeg
1 1/2 teaspoon Ground allspice
1 1/2 teaspoon Ground cloves
