gifts-in-a-Jar Pumkin Pie Spice Mix

 Pumpkin pie spice is readily available in any grocery store. If you have quality spices available to you the homemade mix is a much better quality.
 
Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix

1/4 cup ground cinnamon
1/8 cup ground ginger
1 Tablespoon nutmeg
1 Tablespoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon *allspice (optional)

Mix all ingredients together, and store in cool, dry place. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.
*Note: Use the ground allspice berries. There is a commercial general mix called "all spice" which combines several spices much like this pumpkin pie spice mix. Check the tin to be sure it is not a mixture.
