Ground Ginger: This is the star of the blend and what gives gingerbread its gentle heat and cozy depth.Freshly purchased ground ginger has the best bite, so if your jar is more than a year old, it’s worth replacing for the most vibrant flavor.Ground Nutmeg: Nutmeg softens the sharper edges of the other spices and adds a subtle nuttiness that rounds out the mix.

Grating whole nutmeg just before using will give your spice mix an extra lift.Ground Allspice: Allspice adds a layer of complexity; it tastes like a mix of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg all in one.If you don’t have any on hand, you can create a quick substitute by combining equal parts of those three spices.
