Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte

by MICHELE WEAVER

The best homemade pumpkin spice latte made with real pumpkin puree and cozy pumpkin pie spice. You'll love this naturally sweetened, dairy free pumpkin spice latte recipe for your morning coffee or a delicious afternoon pick-me-up

Ingredients

2 shots espresso (or sub 1/2 cup hot freshly brewed coffee but I prefer espresso)
1 cup milk of choice, preferably a milk that froths well (we love oat milk)
1 to 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (start with 1 tablespoon)
1-2 tablespoons maple syrup, to sweeten
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Whipped cream for topping (optional but recommended)

Instructions
- Pour milk into a small pot and heat over medium-low heat until it is hot and almost simmering, but do not boil the milk.
- Make your espresso and pour it into a large mug or glass mason jar. Add pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla and stir until well combined.
- Use a milk frother to froth your milk for about 30 seconds or until foamy, then pour into the mug on top of the pumpkin espresso mixture. Reserve the extra foam, and spoon it on top.
- Feel free to top with whipped cream if you wanna get a little fancy. Sprinkle with a little extra pumpkin spice or cinnamon.
