Ingredients

8 tablespoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

Combine all the spices in a large bowl.
Whisk together thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
Transfer the spice blend to an airtight container with a capacity of at least 1/4 cup. This will allow enough space for the spices without being tightly packed.
Label the container with the name "Apple Pie Spice" and the date it was made.
Store in a cool, dark place (like a pantry) for up to 6 months.

Notes

Tips:

Scaling up: If you need more or less than 16 servings, simply adjust the recipe proportionally. For example, to double the recipe, use 16 tablespoons cinnamon, 8 teaspoons nutmeg, 4 teaspoons allspice, and 2 teaspoons ginger (optional).
Grind your own spices: For the freshest flavor, consider grinding whole spices using a spice grinder.
Customize the blend: Feel free to adjust the spice quantities to suit your preference. You can also add a pinch of ground cloves or cardamom for a slightly different flavor profile.
Uses: This homemade apple pie spice can be used in various baking recipes, including apple pie, crumbles, crisps, muffins, pancakes, and even hot cocoa.
