{"product_id":"apple-pie-spice","title":"Apple Pie Spice","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne jar holds the warm, sweet-spice heart of apple pie: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/spicepilgrim.com\/products\/ground-cinnamon\"\u003eCeylon cinnamon\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/spicepilgrim.com\/products\/ground-nutmeg\"\u003enutmeg\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/spicepilgrim.com\/products\/all-spice-berries-ground\"\u003eallspice\u003c\/a\u003e, and a lift of orange peel, ground fresh and balanced so the cinnamon leads and nothing turns bitter. Fold it into pie filling and crisp topping, stir it through oatmeal or pancake batter, or shake it over baked apples and roasted squash. It reaches well past pie, anywhere you want cozy, rounded warmth with a bright edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets ours apart is the orange peel. Most apple pie blends stop at cinnamon and nutmeg and taste a little flat. A touch of real orange peel wakes the whole jar up, the way a squeeze of citrus brightens a baked apple. Everything is stone-ground fresh in small batches in Portland, so the aroma is bright the moment you open the jar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApple pie spice runs cinnamon-forward, which is what makes it different from our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/spicepilgrim.com\/products\/pumpkin-pie-spice\"\u003ePumpkin Spice\u003c\/a\u003e. It skips the heavier ginger and clove of a pumpkin blend, so it suits apples, pears, and lighter bakes. Ingredients: Ceylon Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Allspice, Orange Peel. No salt, no sugar, no preservatives. Naturally gluten-free and vegan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--split--\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I use it in place of the spices a recipe lists?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUse it as a one-for-one stand-in for the warm spices. As a rule, add about one teaspoon of the blend for each teaspoon of cinnamon the recipe calls for, then drop the separately listed nutmeg and allspice. Taste and adjust from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat do I use it for besides apple pie?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTreat it as an all-purpose sweet-spice blend. Stir it into oatmeal, pancake and waffle batter, muffins, cookies, and quick breads, or dust it over baked apples, roasted squash, sweet potatoes, coffee, or a bowl of yogurt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the orange peel do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt adds a bright, citrus lift that most apple pie blends miss. The orange sits in the background and lifts the cinnamon and nutmeg, the way a little citrus brightens a baked apple. It does not read as orange on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it contain sugar?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. It is pure spice, with no sugar, salt, or fillers, so you control the sweetness in whatever you are making. That also lets it work in savory dishes, like a rub for roasted squash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I keep it fresh?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore the jar sealed in a cool, dark cupboard away from heat and steam. Freshly ground spice holds its bright aroma for several months, so buy what you will bake through and keep the lid tight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"spicepilgrim","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50564319903984,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/6368\/2544\/files\/ApplePieSpice.webp?v=1791068455","url":"https:\/\/spicepilgrim.com\/products\/apple-pie-spice","provider":"Spice Pilgrim","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
