Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix
You may be wondering, why take the time to create your own pumpkin spice mix when it’s easier (and possibly cheaper if you don’t already have the spices) to just pick up one at the market. One word: taste. Trust me, I tried various commercial brands and the difference in flavor between my breads, cakes, muffins, etc. baked with my homemade combination and those made with a store-bought mix was astounding. Try it yourself and prepare to be amazed!
