Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened pumpkin puree
- 1½ tablespoons granulated white sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Coffee and Toppings
- 1 cup brewed coffee
- ¼ cup vanilla creamer
- Whipped cream (for the top)
- Pumpkin pie spice (for the top)
Instructions
- Combine Pumpkin Mixture: In a glass mixing cup, add the whole milk, unsweetened pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice. Use a whisk to thoroughly combine these ingredients until smooth and evenly mixed.
- Heat Pumpkin Mixture: Place the glass mixing cup in the microwave and heat for 1 minute. This warms the mixture and helps blend the flavors. Carefully remove the cup from the microwave once heated and pour the mixture into your serving glass.
- Brew Coffee: Brew 1 cup of your preferred coffee. Pour the freshly brewed coffee into the glass containing the warmed pumpkin mixture, mixing the components together to create a flavorful base.
- Add Creamer and Finish: Stir in ¼ cup of vanilla creamer for added richness and sweetness. Top your latte with a generous amount of whipped cream and sprinkle with additional pumpkin pie spice for garnish and extra aroma.
Notes
- Use whole milk for creaminess, or substitute with any milk alternative to suit dietary preferences.
- Adjust sugar and pumpkin pie spice quantities to taste for a sweeter or spicier latte.
- Heating the pumpkin mixture separately helps enhance the pumpkin flavor and prevents curdling in the coffee.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based milk, creamer, and whipped topping.
