This delightful beverage combines the warmth of pumpkin spice with the rich, aromatic notes of coffee, creating a vegan-friendly indulgence perfect for cozy autumn days.

‍

Ingredients

1 cup of brewed strong coffee or 2 shots of espresso
1/2 cup of pumpkin puree
2 cups of unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)
2 tbsp of pure maple syrup
1 tsp of pumpkin spice blend (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves)
1/2 tsp of vanilla extract
Vegan whipped cream for topping (optional)
Ground cinnamon for garnish

Preparations

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, almond milk, maple syrup, pumpkin spice blend, and vanilla extract.

Step 2

Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking continuously to ensure it is well combined. Allow it to simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until it's heated through.

Step 3

While the pumpkin spice mixture is simmering, brew a strong cup of coffee or prepare 2 shots of espresso.

Step 4

Once the pumpkin spice mixture is heated through, use a blender or immersion blender to blend until smooth and frothy.

Step 5

In your favorite mug, pour the brewed coffee or espresso. Gently pour the pumpkin spice mixture over the coffee, holding back the foam with a spoon to let the liquid pour first. Spoon the foam on top of the latte, creating a deliciously frothy layer.
