Mulling Spice Recipe
A few years ago I did a little research into how to DIY Mulling spices.
I found an easy recipe which I doctored up a little to make it my own then used my creation in a few different recipes below.
I mixed it all together and believe me it was delicious!
I can't wait to serve it to my guests on Thanksgiving!

Next, I decided to use the Mulling spice recipe to make Cranberry Bread!
I cheated a little and used a Krusteaz Fat Free Cranberry Orange box mix as my base.
You can really add it to almost any muffin or boxed bread mix.
Instead of just adding the can of cranberry-orange that came with the box, I mixed it with a cup of the homemade cranberry relish recipe above and added it to the bread mix.
I used the little can it came with as my measurement for the relish.
Now the yummy cranberry-orange bread had pecans, pineapple, cranberry, and orange!
And since I'm a crafter and not really a cook, I couldn't stop there, I had to add my own touch...
I filled several jars with the homemade Mulling Spice recipe, added a cute label, and I'm giving it to my guests at Thanksgiving.

And now to make you house smell just as delicious as the bread tastes...
Mix 1/2 a cup of Mulling Spice and 1 cup of water into 2 cups of red wine, cider or tea.
Simmer on the stove or add to a small crock pot and you have a delicious room scent for the holidays!
