Homemade Spicy Chili Powder

This is the best Homemade Spicy Chili Powder recipe. It’s incredibly simple and quick to mix up. As with any homemade seasoning mix, since you control the ingredients, you control the salt content in your food. You can also control the quality of ingredients and can avoid any allergens you or your family might have. For this recipe, I’ve opted to select gluten free seasonings to use in my favorite seasoning blend recipe. Once you’ve made your own homemade seasoning or spice blend, you’ll never want to buy another store-bought chili powder ever again.

Ingredients for Homemade Spicy Chili Powder

• Paprika
• Oregano
• Cumin
• Garlic Powder
• Onion Powder
• Cayenne Pepper

How to Make Homemade Spicy Chili Powder

Homemade Spicy Chili Powder is incredibly simple to make. All you need are your spices, a mixing bowl, and measuring spoons, and another spoon or whisk to mix the spices with. If you’re lacking a mixing spoon or whisk, an easy way to mix these spices without one would be to place the spices into a container with a tight fitting lid, and with the lid shut, shaking the container until the spices are well mixed.

1. Mix Paprika, Oregano, Cumin, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, and Cayenne Pepper together in a mixing bowl.
2. Store your mixed spice blend in a sealed container until you’re ready to use it.
