How To Make Pumpkin Pie Spice

I love pumpkin pie spice, but sadly it can be difficult to find pumpkin pie spice here in NZ.

So what do I do? I learn how to make pumpkin pie spice myself. If I make my own pumpkin pie spice, then I can adjust the quantities of each spice to exactly how I like it.

I have seen many variations, but I finally hit on a pumpkin pie spice with added cardamom. You may omit this if you like, but after much trial and error, I truly believe it takes how to make pumpkin pie spice to another level.

Cardamom give it that extra va-va-va-voom. Go on, try it yourself and taste the difference.

You simply measure and place all the spices into an airtight jar and begin dreaming of all your favourite pumpkin recipes.

My favourite would have to be chocolate pumpkin pie. But stay tuned, because tomorrow I will be publishing a pumpkin pie spice fudge – with a cooking video. My kids have made me make this three times since I finally hit on the right combo. Imagine creamy, spicy low carb fudge.

You could also use my pimped up version of pumpkin pie spice in my low-carb Chelsea buns. Or how about sprinkled over my sugar free spiced almonds before baking? How would you use it?
