Pumpkin Spiced Latte

[heart_this] · Oct 26, 2016 · 6 Comments

Pumpkin Spiced Latte

A fall favourite, pumpkin spiced latte, that is easy to make at home and actually has pumpkin in it!

I was recently introduced to pumpkin spice latte’s (I know they’ve been around forever but…) and they’re pretty darn good! But… They’re

pretty
really expensive and they don’t actually have any pumpkin in them! What’s up with that? I figured it would be pretty easy to make them at home and I could actually use pumpkin in them! This is a quick and easy stove top version where you heat the milk along with plenty of pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice and of course some strong brewed coffee (If you have an espresso maker, feel free to use it!), sweeten it and optionally top it with whipped cream and enjoy! You can easily add flavour in the form of changing the sweetener! I like caramel sauce or dulce de leche but maple syrup, honey, brown sugar are also really good alternatives! Say goodbye to expensive, no-pumpkin pumpkin spice lattes and hello to these easy homemade pumpkin pie lattes!

    What kind of milk was used? Skim, low fat, whole? Makes quite a difference in calorie count!

    Anonymous: I used regular milk for the nutrition facts values but you could use skim milk or even a low calorie alternative like almond milk or coconut milk.

    Does the pumpkin thin out while it's boiling or do you strain it? Seems like with the purée this would turn into more of a pumpkin coffee smoothie and less of a latte

    Our friends own a local coffee shop and spent a lot of time coming up with just the perfect recipe using real organic pumpkin and their single origin espressos–I can't even drink the "mermaid" PSLs anymore (yuck)! Thanks for this–definitely cheaper, and handy for days I don't want to get out.

    Mr. Fish and Taxes: You can strain it if you want. I find that canned pumpkin puree becomes pretty smooth when mixed in with the milk and coffee and if I'm using homemade pumpkin puree I puree the pumpkin in a blender first.
