What do Impossibly Easy Pumpkin Pie, Squash Blossoms, Morning Glory Muffin Squares and Caramel-Spice French Breakfast Muffins all have in common? Pumpkin pie spice as an ingredient, that’s what! A staple spice of many fall favorites, this fragrant blend is incredibly easy (and economical) to make at home.

To start, you’ll need all of three minutes and the following ingredients: 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg, 1 ½ teaspoons ground allspice and 1 ½ teaspoons ground cloves. Mix the spices together in a small bowl and take a little whiff. (Smells like heaven, right?) Store the mixture in a clean small jar or spice container. See? So easy.
