Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte Recipe

156 shares
  • 3

Nothing says “fall” like pumpkin, and nothing is better on a cool day than a hot drink! Make this homemade pumpkin spice latte to cozy up an autumn morning or family gathering.

Make your own pumpkin spice latte at home with this delicious recipe!

I don’t drink a lot of coffee, but this homemade pumpkin spice latte is so good! By making it yourself at home you can use healthier ingredients and save money at the same time.

Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte

Our basic recipe makes 4 servings, but it’s easy to double if you’re serving more people.

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups milk (we think it turns out best with whole milk, but you can also use a non-dairy alternative like almond milk )
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup white sugar (or an alternative sweetener like Gentle Sweet)
  • 1/4 cup canned pumpkin
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla (learn how to make your own vanilla here)
  • 2 cups strong, hot brewed coffee
  • whipped cream and cinnamon

Directions:

  1. Start the coffee brewing.
  2. In a medium saucepan, stir together the milk, sugar, and pumpkin. Heat over med/low heat until hot but not boiling.
  3. Remove from heat and whisk in the spices, vanilla, and coffee.
  4. To make the whipped cream, we use about 2 cups heavy whipping cream and sweeten with 4 Tbsp. sugar (you can also use an alternative like Gentle Sweet or stevia to sweeten). Add 1 tsp vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  5. Ladle your homemade pumpkin spice latte into mugs and garnish with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice.

    Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte

    Author: Joy Kincaid

    Ingredients

    • 4 cups milk
    • 1/4 cup brown sugar
    • 1/4 cup white sugar
    • 1/4 cup canned pumpkin
    • 1 tsp cinnamon
    • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
    • 1 Tbsp vanilla
    • 2 cups strong, hot brewed coffee
    • whipped cream and cinnamon

    Instructions

    • Start the coffee brewing.
    • In a medium saucepan, stir together the milk, sugar, and pumpkin. Heat over med/low heat until hot but not boiling, stirring frequently.
    • Remove from heat and whisk in the spices, vanilla, and coffee.
    • To make the whipped cream, we use about 2 cups heavy whipping cream and sweeten with 4 Tbsp. sugar (you can also use an alternative like Gentle Sweet or stevia to sweeten). Add 1 tsp vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
    • Ladle your homemade pumpkin spice latte into mugs and garnish with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice.

    Notes

    If you like your latte very sweet, you may need to add more sweetener to this recipe, as it isn't overly sweet.
    We like this recipe best with whole milk, but you can also use non-dairy milk alternatives (such as almond milk). You can also use alternative sweeteners such as stevia, coconut sugar, maple syrup, etc.

    I’m visiting from “Inspire Me Monday” and I’m thankful for your homemade pumpkin spice latte recipe which I promptly saved. Normally, I buy the coffee syrup but even the best one isn’t as flavorful as I’d like so I’m exploring other options. I will give this a try and I’ll report back later on what I think. Have a blessed day!

    I have a very similar recipe, but I like that this recipe uses brown sugar. That adds a lovely flavouring. Yum! Pinning 🙂
