I bought pumpkin pie spice because I couldn’t find pumpkin spice. I made a pumpkin latte last night.
I made a simple recipe of oatmeal, pumpkin pie spice,milk and honey. It came out alright all the flavor was in certain chunks of the oatmeal. Need to brainstorm on how to distribute the flavor. Probably need to stir well
This is what the outcome of my first pumpkin pie spice cereal


It is the spices you would use when making a pumpkin pie. Pumpkin itself doesn’t have much of a taste.
Pumpkin does have a taste, rather like squash but not as sweet. The spices (and sugar) are what make pumpkin pie yummy. You could make a pie without the pumpkin, just the spices and sugar and evaporated milk and eggs, maybe a half-teaspoon of cornstarch to help make a custardy filling, baked in a pie shell. It would be yummy. But it wouldn’t be pumpkin pie.
