    How To Store Apple Pie Spice

    In a cold, dark place, store the apple pie spice in an airtight container. The airtight container will keep moisture out of your spice blend, keeping it fresh. It will not spoil, although ground spices lose their flavor over time.  I recommend using up the spice blend as soon as possible. Do not keep for long periods of time.

    Homemade Apple Pie Spice FAQ

    Should I refrigerate the spice?

    You don’t need to refrigerate the apple pie spice blend. Store it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.

    When does the spice blend lose its potency?

    As a general rule, the spice blend should be replaced every year or two. However, for more flavorful food and beverages, I recommend replacing the spice blend every twelve months. That is why I do not recommend making large batches of apple pie spice blend unless you intend to give it as gifts.

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

    There isn’t much difference between these two autumn spices. Pumpkin pie spice is typically created using cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, or ground cloves. Cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cardamom are common ingredients in apple pie spice. They have the same ingredients. However, we do not add cardamom in making a pumpkin spice blend.

    Can I make large batches of this apple pie spice?

    Yes, you can. Purchase spices in bulk and prepare a large batch.

    How to give apple pie spice as gifts?

    Fill some adorable glass jars with your apple pie spice blend and wrap a festive ribbon around each jar for a quick Christmas, housewarming present, or hostess gift.
