What is Apple Pie Spice?

Apple pie spice is a warming spice blend that combines the hallmark flavors of classic fall baking: cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and ginger. Unlike pumpkin pie spice (which typically includes cloves), apple pie spice mix has a more delicate, cinnamon-forward profile that complements rather than overpowers the natural tartness of apples.

Think of it as autumn in a jar – the perfect shortcut to creating that signature homemade apple pie spice flavor without having to measure multiple spices. Our blend streamlines your baking while delivering maximum flavor in every teaspoon.

Our Apple Pie Spice Contains:

  • Cinnamon – Warm, sweet, and comforting (the dominant flavor)
  • Nutmeg – Subtle earthiness with a rich, nutty undertone
  • Allspice – Hints of clove and pepper-like notes
  • Ginger – A gentle kick of warmth and depth

How Much Apple Pie Spice to Use?

For Apple Pie Filling:
Use 1½ to 2 teaspoons of apple pie spice per 6 medium apples (for a 9" pie)

For Baking:

  • Muffins & Quick Breads: ½ to 1 teaspoon per cup of batter
  • Pancakes & Waffles: ½ teaspoon per cup of batter
  • Cookies: 1 to 2 teaspoons per batch
  • French Toast: ¼ to ½ teaspoon per serving

Pro Tip: Start with the lower amount and taste – you can always add more! Too much spice can overpower the delicate flavor of apples.

Is Apple Pie Spice the Same as Cinnamon?

No! While cinnamon is the dominant flavor in apple pie spice, the blend includes additional spices (nutmeg, allspice, ginger) that create a more complex, layered flavor profile. You can substitute apple pie spice for cinnamon in most recipes – just use the same amount and enjoy the extra depth of flavor.

FAQs

What is apple pie spice made of?

Apple pie spice is a blend of warm baking spices: cinnamon (the dominant flavor), nutmeg, allspice, and ginger. Our blend uses these four spices in a perfectly balanced ratio that complements the natural sweetness and tartness of apples without overpowering them.

How much apple pie spice to use?

Use 1½ to 2 teaspoons per 6 medium apples when making a 9-inch pie. For baking, use ½ to 1 teaspoon per cup of batter for muffins or quick breads. Start with less and add more to taste – the spice should enhance, not overpower, your recipe.

What is the difference between apple pie spice and pumpkin pie spice?

The main difference is that pumpkin pie spice contains cloves, which give it a more robust, complex flavor. Apple pie spice is more cinnamon-forward and has a sweeter, more delicate taste. Apple pie spice typically contains cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and ginger, while pumpkin pie spice includes all of those plus cloves.

Is apple pie spice the same as cinnamon?

No. While cinnamon is the primary ingredient in apple pie spice, the blend also includes nutmeg, allspice, and ginger, creating a more complex flavor profile. You can use apple pie spice as a 1:1 substitute for cinnamon in recipes when you want a more layered, autumn-inspired taste.
