The seasons have changed, Autumn is officially here and it’s time to cozy up with a mug of this warm and spicy cup of perfection. Made with fresh pumpkin and real spices, DandiBlend (a herbal coffee alternative) and natural sweeteners, this is a wonderful elixir that will fuel your day, rather than detract from your health.

Homemade Pumpkin Spice Blend
Pumpkin spice, if you make it at home with actual spices, is an incredible mix of nutrient-dense aromatics like cinnamon, ginger, cloves and nutmeg. I make a big batch of this beautiful spice blend and add it to my Pumpkin Spice Latte, Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oats and my super yummy Spicy Oatmeal Cookies!
2 tbsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground tumeric
1 tsp ground allspice
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground nutmeg
