Fall is officially almost here! It's not the crunching of the leaves that tells you, but the arrival of Pumpkin Spice Lattes at coffee shops everywhere. Unfortunately for me, making a daily visit to a coffee shop is out of the question. But that's okay since I can enjoy a Pumpkin Spice Latte without even leaving my home, whenever I want.
I keep it simple when it comes to making a Pumpkin Spice Latte & make it in the mug itself (hence why there's a bit of pumpkin along the edges of the cup).
Pumpkin Spice Latte
Forget seasonal, enjoy a Pumpkin Spice Latte at home whenever you're in the mood for one!
Ingredients
- 3/4 C. milk
- 2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
- 3 Tbsp. pumpkin puree
- 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 C. freshly brewed strong black coffee
- optional: whipped cream, nutmeg, cinnamon &/or cinnamon stick
Instructions
•In a large cafe mug, combine first 5 ingredients & heat in the microwave. •Use an immersion blender to thoroughly blend & create some froth. (If you don't have an immersion blender, you can use a standard blender.) •Slowly pour freshly brewed strong black coffee into the side of the mug. •Top with whipped cream, nutmeg, cinnamon &/or a cinnamon stick if desired.

Ohmygosh! That sounds delicious! I think I might be ready for fall now! :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt seriously does. I am a HUGE fan of pumpkin anything. Yum!
DeleteMy wife would like this, i am not a pumpkin fan..
ReplyDeleteI love pumpkin lattes but not the spice ones. I will make this without the spice as it sounds so good.
ReplyDeleteI love this recipe and it has got to be cheaper than the coffee houses to just make it at home!
ReplyDeleteIt's not fall without pumpkin spice latte! May have to make one this afternoon!
ReplyDeleteThis is just plain awesome. Plus it would save me a fortune at Starbucks LOL.
ReplyDeleteWow this is great! Now I don't have to spend all my money at Starbucks ;) plus, this version seems more natural and healthy since I know exactly what's in it
ReplyDeleteIt's the pumpkin season again and you know what, you gave me a great idea on where to use it! Where else but with a cup of joe, right? So I'll feel like fall everytime! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing. I don't drink coffee, though. Wondering if it would work for hot chocolate?
ReplyDeleteYummy! I have a recipe linky on Fridays. Won't you share this with my readers then? Sure hope so sounds great! mmm
ReplyDeleteohhhh you made my day! I have been looking high and low for this to celebrate the season!
ReplyDeleteI have never been to a coffee shop which is odd being that we seem to literally have a drive through coffee shop on every corner here. I like making my own and will give this one a try. I love pretty much anything pumpkin.
ReplyDeleteEven better than the artificial stuff you get at DD or Sbucks. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteOh my how yummy. Perfect for the fall.
ReplyDeleteOK I am so going to try this especially since I'm cutting back on my Starbucks purchases and it's one that I just have to have.
ReplyDeleteOh yum that sounds absolutely delicious - perfect for the cold autumn evenings we are getting! x
ReplyDeleteYum! I want to make one right now! I'm going to the store later and will have to get the ingredients I don't have.
ReplyDeleteYa know, I've still never had one of these! Maybe one day!
ReplyDeleteI've never had pumpkin spice latte, but it sure does sound delicious. I'll have to try it!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds delicious. Even better than the store bought ones. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThis is the craze. Thank goodness I will not be buying this but instead making my own version. Great and simple recipe.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy and definately more healthy than those at coffee shops filled with all kinds of crazy ingredients. Pinning this so I can find it again. :)
ReplyDeleteThis really gets you in the spirit for fall and I am so ready for one of these. I will have to make this for my mom . I know she will love it.
ReplyDeleteOh yum! The first cold day we have I'm going to make this.
ReplyDeleteMust. Have. Pumpkin. Seriously! It's officially fall! WOO HOO!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the recipe! Love fall and a great spice latte like this would come in handy on chilly fall mornings!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this great recipe! I love pumpkin spiced lattes, so I'll be making this in the VERY near future! =D
ReplyDeleteThis sounds so good and I will have to try this for sure. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteWhat a yummy recipe. Thank you for sharing I can't wait to try it out.
ReplyDeleteThis looks wonderful. I look forward to trying this recipe out.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had a latte in awhile. I think getting one w/pumpkin spice would be ideal.
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge pumpkin pie fan, I never had anything else made of pumpkin or pumpkin flavored. I would love to try this!
ReplyDeleteConsidering the Starbucks recipe that went around, this is a great substitute. Yum!
ReplyDeleteI love all of the Fall recipes that contain pumpkin. I think this would do me good right now that I'm sick with a bad cold.
ReplyDeleteI love the pumpkin, although I don't drink coffee. You always make conventional recipes with an extraordinary twist to make them better.
ReplyDeleteIf I could drink coffee I would have definitely tried this. This recipe is so simple and yet sounds so delicious. May be I could make this for my friends. :)
ReplyDeleteI've just had to go and see if we can now get pumpkin puree in the UK, as previously you couldn't. I don't drink coffee, but wonder if it would work with hot chocolate?
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the smell of pumpkin and spice. Will definitely be giving this a try during the fall/winter months.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you did this hopefully I can save some money by making this at home too!
