Apple Pie Spice Blend
Not just for pie or apples! Use this spice blend in apple sauce, stewed rhubarb, hot mulled cider, gingerbread, pancakes, spice cake, spiced shortbread, cinnamon toast, etc. The cardamom adds a bright, exotic aroma people love but can't often put their finger on. The ginger adds a sharp but warm bite.
