pumpkin spice latte
Yield: 1 drink
Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 4 min
Ingredients:
1/2 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon unsweetened canned pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup hot brewed, coffee- I always use my Keurig- donut shop plain coffee works best
2 tablespoons half & half cream or for the dieters-skim milk
1 teaspoon granulated white sugar, or more to taste-splenda works great tto
whipped cream, optional-never optional for me
ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup hot brewed, coffee- I always use my Keurig- donut shop plain coffee works best
2 tablespoons half & half cream or for the dieters-skim milk
1 teaspoon granulated white sugar, or more to taste-splenda works great tto
whipped cream, optional-never optional for me
ground nutmeg
Directions:
1. In a glass measuring cup or microwave-safe bowl, whisk together milk, pumpkin, brown sugar, spice and vanilla. Microwave for 1 to 2 minutes- watch closely and remove it from the microwave when the milk is hot and frothy.
2. Pour the pumpkin milk into a tall mug or glass. Add hot coffee. Pour in the cream. Add a teaspoon of sugar. Stir, and taste. Add more sugar, if desired.
3. Optional, but oh so good (let's be honest, it is not optional) add whipped cream on top and a sprinkle of nutmeg. Serve immediately!
Tips:
*Feel free to lighten up the recipe by using nonfat milk and fat-free half & half. It won't be as rich, but it will still give you that yummy pumpkin latte flavor.
*If you don't have pumpkin pie spice in your collection of spices, make your own! Mix equal parts of cinnamon, ginger, allspice and nutmeg- and measure from there.
