Recipe Notes
- Use a substitute if needed: If you don’t want to make your own, pumpkin spice blends work well as a substitute.
- No Strict Ratios of Spices: Feel free to adjust the spices to your taste.
- Make in small batches: Mixing smaller amounts keeps your spice fresher and more flavorful longer.
- Seal for ultimate freshness: Vacuum-sealing your blend helps preserve its aroma and potency.
- Try related homemade ingredients: You can also make your own Candied Mixed Peel and Glacé Cherries for baking.
- Store properly: Keep in an airtight container or a sealed jar, away from heat and sunlight.
