What Is Pumpkin Spice?

Homemade pumpkin pie spice mix is traditionally made with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, although many homemade recipes (including ours, below) include ginger and allspice, too. While many people associate beloved pumpkin pie recipes with Thanksgiving meals, Scientific American reports that pumpkin pie probably wasnโ€™t served during Colonial times: โ€œWhile we believe that American colonists were eating pumpkins simply because it would have been a prolific food source, their ovens would not have been capable of creating modern crusts as we know them.โ€ Pumpkin spiceโ€™s modern rise to fame began in the 1950s, when McCormick first sold a blend on supermarket shelves. Since then, home cooks and popular brands alike have discovered myriad ways to make the most of these flavors, from cult-favorite lattes to family-secret pumpkin spice cookie recipes.

What Is in Pumpkin Pie Spice?

Straight from the Thrive Market Test Kitchen, this is the spice blend we reach for regularly between September and March. Pro tip: donโ€™t be shy about doubling or tripling the recipe so youโ€™ll have enough for several months. The mix also makes a thoughtful hostess gift.
