Pumpkin Spice Latte

Step 1

In a small saucepan, add the milk, pumpkin, maple syrup, vanilla and spice blend and warm over low-medium heat (if using dairy milk, only let the milk simmer with gentle bubbles. If the flame is too high, it will curdle).

Step 2

Occasionally mix to ensure everything blends together. Pour into glass, mix in ¼ cup hot brewed coffee (or 1 ounce brewed espresso) and top with a squirt of optional whipped cream and sprinkle of additional pumpkin spice.

Step 3

*Alternatively, you can heat and blend the milk mixture (with pumpkin, maple, vanilla and spice) in the microwave, stopping and stirring in 30- to 45-second increments (it’ll take 1 to 2 minutes to get it nice and hot).
