I Know. It’s too early for Halloween

Written By Josie Emmons

And yet I’m already yearning for the warm colours, the fragrant spices connected with Autumn. Did you know how simple is to make a Pumpkin Spice mix? You can use it to prepare a number of recipes, from Pumpkin Spice Latte to warm rolls, to spiced biscuits or Autumnal Blondies.


Pumpkin Spice Mix

3 tablespoons ground Cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground Ginger

1 teaspoon ground Cloves

1 teaspoon ground Nutmeg

1 teaspoon mixed spice

½ teaspoon ground white pepper (optional but recommended)

Mix all the spices together and store in a spice jar or a mason jar. It should last a couple of years.

I know it sounds like a lot of spices to buy, but you will be using them for Christmas too - if you follow me :)
