Indulge in Autumn's warm embrace with a homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte. With this simple recipe, you can experience a classic fall flavor without going to your local coffee shop and without consuming loads of sugary FODMAPs. This delicious creamy latte features the perfect blend of real pumpkin and classic pumpkin spice flavors, making it the perfect autumn treat. A dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of nutmeg make it simple perfection.
Ingredients: Latte
2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (I always use Libbys)
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice*
1 1/2 tablespoon superfine sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups lactose-free whole milk, warmed
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 - 1/2 cup strong decaf coffee or espresso (I use Starbucks Decaf Via Italian Roast)
Ingredients: Whipped Cream
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon powdered sugar (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions: Latte
(1) Heat the milk: Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat (or in the microwave) and remove from the heat before it boils.
(2) Blend: To the blender add pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, superfine sugar, vanilla extract, and heated milk. Blend on high until smooth and consistent. Then pour the hot coffee into the blender and blend again – about 2 minutes altogether.
(3) Serve: Pour the hot latte mixture into mugs. Add a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg.
Directions: Whipped Cream
(1) Prepare: Keep cream well-chilled until ready to whip and don’t prepare this too far ahead of time as it’s best when freshly whipped (a few hours is OK and then keep it in the fridge).
(2) Whip: Pour cream into a medium to large metal or glass mixing bowl or the largest bowl of your stand mixer and, using your largest whisk (or the whisk attachment on your mixer, or a hand mixer), beat until soft peaks form.
(3) Finish: Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and whip until the cream holds its shape nicely. Taste and adjust sugar as needed.
Drink and enjoy every sip because you can!
