Making a canned pumpkin latte at home is easy, and it’s a perfect way to enjoy a cozy, fall-inspired drink without having to go to a café. Here’s a simple recipe to make your own pumpkin latte using canned pumpkin:
PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE
1/4 cup canned pumpkin puree
1 tablespoon sugar (or sweetener of choice), or less depending on your sugar preference
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves)
1 cup milk (or non-dairy milk of choice)
1/2 cup brewed coffee or 1 shot of espresso
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Make the Pumpkin Spice Mixture:
In a small saucepan, combine the canned pumpkin puree, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is warm and smooth. This will help bring out the flavors of the pumpkin and spices.
Prepare the Milk:
In a separate small saucepan, heat the milk (or non-dairy milk) over medium heat until warm but not boiling. You can also froth the milk using a milk frother for a creamier texture.
Brew the Coffee:
Brew your coffee or make an espresso shot. Pour the hot coffee into a mug.
Combine the Pumpkin and Milk:
Once the milk is warm, whisk it into the pumpkin mixture until it’s smooth and well combined.
Assemble the Latte:
Pour the pumpkin milk mixture into the mug with your brewed coffee or espresso. Stir to combine.Top your pumpkin latte with whipped cream, a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon.
