Can you substitute pumpkin pie spice for cinnamon? Yes! You can sub in pumpkin pie spice for cinnamon in any baked good. We think it’d be particularly good in our classic cinnamon rolls or even mixed with sugar and dusted over churros for a fall-flavored twist! How long will this spice mix last? As a general rule, spices stay fresh for about 4 years. (Though they will lose some of their potency as time goes on.) Make sure you’re storing your spices in a cool, dark place, away from sunlight and tightly sealed. Do I have to use all of the spices? Not at all! Though you may not be getting the full punch of autumnal tastes, if you don’t have allspice on hand, that is totally okay. Also a good sub for any of these spices would be mace, or simply add in a 1/4 teaspoon. What other things can I use pumpkin pie spice for? Well, it goes without saying that this would make the best pumpkin pie EVER. You could also use it for pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin spice muffins, sweet potato pie… the list goes on and on.
