I can’t stand spending my money on food items when I know they are much cheaper when making them at home 🏡. Most of the time, we have all the ingredients on hand to make them.
 
In the past, I’ve shared a few of my little “money saving” recipes such as Vanilla Sugar – How to Make It, Graham Cracker Crust, Powdered Sugar – Make it, Don’t Buy it!, Homemade Sanding Sugar aka Sand Sugar, Homemade Balsamic Glaze, and so on.
 
There’s a spice blend that I keep scratching my head to understand why home cooks would buy 🛒 it at the store at its exorbitant price when it takes less than 5 minutes to make. I’m talking here about Pumpkin Pie Spice! It’s crazy how much they charge when it’s only a fraction of the cost when making it from scratch. It tastes “fresher”, it’s cost effective and you know exactly what goes in it.
 
This blend is ideal for many recipes like Pumpkin Chai Bread, Pumpkin Coffee Creamer, Spicy Pumpkin Pork Chops, Pumpkin Pie 🎃, Pumpkin Squares, etc.
 
My motto is “if I can make it from scratch, I’ll do it!”, and it should be yours as well. By making this Pumpkin Pie Spice at home, you save a few dollars. Eventually a little saved here then a little saved over there will make you realize that making 👩‍🍳 your own blends is so worth it plus you don’t have to go to the store. By saving time and money, you have the fresh homemade version at your fingertips… to me that’s being smart!
