Homemade Gingerbread Spice Mix
"You definitely need this homemade gingerbread spice mix recipe for the holiday season, if you’re like myself and love gingerbread flavour. It’s just so easy to have the spices already mixed together for recipes that call for gingerbread spice. Furthermore, it’s so much better than any store bought variation. Now, I’ve seen many different spice mixes online, but this is the one I stick to as, in my opinion, it has the best gingerbread flavour. For my gingerbread spice mix I use equal parts of both cinnamon and ginger and ¼ part of all the other spices – clove, nutmeg, cardamom and allspice. Finally, few pinches of black pepper need to be added as well."
