As soon as autumn arrives and you start feeling cozy, everyone goes crazy for pumpkin spice.

Our no-mess, low-stress DIY Pumpkin Spice seasoning recipe makes it a snap to spice up everything from your morning coffee and oatmeal to your mid-day yogurt or hummus, those weekend waffles and pancakes, and every muffin and pie in between!  

Pumpkin Spice Has Everything Nice

What goes into this seasonal staple that’s inspired the passion for pumpkin spice? You may be surprised to learn that no actual pumpkin is harmed in the making of pumpkin spice! Instead, it’s made by mixing and mingling warm spices known for their sweet and spicy taste. And these basic spices are probably right in your pantry!  All you need is cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and cloves. Simply stir them together and you’re ready to make and bake everything pumpkin spice. But the secret is knowing the right ratio of spices to capture this flavor of fall, which you’ll find in the following recipe.
