Pumpkin pie is a beloved sweet dessert, often enjoyed during autumn and winter holiday gatherings. It's flavored with a familiar blend of warming spices, which also serve as an iconic flavor for ice cream, coffee, cheesecake, pancakes, candy and beer.
Our Pumpkin Pie Spice, blended by hand in small batches, combines our high-quality ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and allspice in a convenient, ready-to-go mixture. It adds a nutty brown color to pumpkin pie.
Pumpkin pie's origins go back to the first permanent European settlement of Plymouth Plantation in the 17th century. Settlers made stewed pumpkins using the squash and pumpkins brought to them by the Native American tribes of the area, filling a hollowed-out pumpkin with milk, honey and spices and then cooking it in hot ash. Later, in 1796, Amelia Simmons published the first American cookbook, including a recipe for pumpkin puddings baked in a crust that bears a strong resemblance to today's iconic pies.
Today, everyone seems to love (dread?) the fall season for the pumpkin pie spiced everything - and we admit, were no exception. Weve added Himalayan Salt to the mix, so that you can use this in new ways youve never thought of before. Explore all of the ways you can use this classic spice blend in your cooking - all year round!
