As we transition into cooler weather, incorporating warm aromatic seasonings can not only enhance the flavor of your beverages and dishes but also provide health benefits. These spices support: your immune system, regulate glucose levels, and improve circulation. Perfect for fall days. Pumpkin pie spice is a beloved option during the Fall season.
This recipe comes from Love and Lemons. Try adding ½ tsp of this spice to your coffee grounds before brewing a 6-cup pot of coffee. You can also sprinkle 1/8-1/4 tsp into smoothies, porridges, puddings, or a single cup of tea or coffee. To infuse the spice into an individual cup, whisk it into a small amount of hot liquid (about 1” deep) before filling the cup and whisking again.
Some may find that incorporating pumpkin pie spice in their morning beverage of choice allows them to reduce the amount of sweetener typically used. This is a great choice that can have positive effects on blood sugar levels and metabolism throughout the day.
