📝 Ingredients

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1
    Gather your ground spices: cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
  2. 2
    In a small bowl, combine the ¾ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves, and ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg.
  3. 3
    Whisk the spices together thoroughly until well combined. Alternatively, place them in a very small lidded jar and shake well.
  4. 4
    Use this homemade blend as a 1:1 substitute for ground allspice in any recipe. If you need more, simply multiply the ratios accordingly. For example, to make 1 tablespoon, use 2¼ teaspoons cinnamon, ¾ teaspoon cloves, and ¾ teaspoon nutmeg.

💡 Notes

This blend works beautifully in both sweet and savory dishes. For a slightly less potent blend, you can reduce the cloves to just an eighth of a teaspoon. Ensure your ground spices are fresh for the best flavor impact.
