    As we head into pie season, you might take a peek in your spice rack and see if you have the spices needed to make homemade apple pie spice recipe.

    (Here’s my homemade pumpkin pie spice recipe!)

    There is no need to spend $2-$3 on a apple pie spice jar from the spice aisle, when you already have the ingredients you need to mix up your own. And you can mix up however much you’ll think you’ll need…leaving none or little to waste.  Seriously, why buy a jar of spice that you only need 1-2 teaspoons of when you can mix up your own with what you’ve got already?!

    This apple pie spice mix would be perfect for…

    • Slow Cooker Maple Sweetened Applesauce
    • Baked Apples with Maple and Granola
    • Homemade Granola

    Do you make your own spice mixes!?!

    I have a little problem. I cannot make a meal that costs more than $5. It’s unnatural, but my pocketbook thanks me.
