Ingredients
- 1/2 cup strong, hot brewed coffee or espresso
- 2 cups milk
- 3 tablespoons pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- whipped cream optional
Instructions
- First, make the coffee. Either make some strong brewed coffee or use espresso.
- Add milk, pumpkin puree, and maple syrup to a medium saucepan and heat over medium heat. Heat until hot but not boiling.
- Lower the heat and whisk in the vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and coffee. Turn heat to lowest setting while you make the whipped cream.
- To make the whipped cream, we use about 1 cup heavy whipping cream and sweeten with 2 Tbsp. sugar (you can also use an alternative like maple syrup or stevia to sweeten). Add about 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Ladle your homemade pumpkin spice latte into two mugs and garnish with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice.
Notes
We like this recipe best with whole milk, but you can also use non-dairy milk alternatives (such as coconut milk).
