- Make your replacement for pumpkin pie spice (and all other spice blends) in smaller batches, especially if you are using freshly-ground spices. This will preserve the flavors best.
- Whenever possible, I recommend purchasing whole spices eg. cinnamon or nutmeg and grating them yourself. Freshly grated spices have much more flavor
- Feel free to experiment with the spices and try different combinations
