Tips
- This recipe is equal parts of each spice, cinnamon, ginger and cloves which I believe are the key ingredients. So you can make as little or as much as you like very easily.
- Other spices that are sometimes found in gingerbread are nutmeg, cardamom, or allspice. If you want to get creative and add a little of these to your liking, go for it!
- You can use this in place of all the spices in any gingerbread recipe. In order to do this, just add up the amount of all the individual spices in any gingerbread recipe and use that total amount of this one mix!
