apple pie spice

Cinnamon-nutmeg pastry blend

Apple pie spice is a blend of ground spices used to flavor apple pie and similar desserts.

The mixture typically combines cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice, sometimes with ginger or cardamom.

It's sold pre-mixed as a convenience product: I added a teaspoon of apple pie spice to the filling.

The blend works in any recipe calling for warm baking spices—oatmeal, cider, quick breads.
