Pumpkin Spice Latte

Monday, October 17, 2011


This weekend we may have gone a little pumpkin crazy. Pumpkin pancakes with pumpkin butter, pumpkin lasagna, and the recreation of my favorite fall beverage, the pumpkin spice latte. It was awesome. Wanna see? Recipe below!










Recipe: Makes 2 servings
(adapted from several versions)

2 cups milk
3 tablespoons canned pumpkin
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, plus more for garnish
1 cup strong brewed coffee
whipped cream
cinnamon, optional garnish

Combine milk, pumpkin, sugar in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring until steaming. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin spice. Whisk the mixture until foamy. Transfer into two mugs, filling each only half full; top with coffee. Garnish with a dollop ow whipped cream and a dash of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon.

P.S. More Pumpkin love.

    Loovely! I haven't tried making my own pumpkin spice latte yet, but I think now I need to. (I cheat and go for Starbucks most of the time.)

    And also, this is the cutest way to share a recipe. Your photos/captions are adorable!

    These look amazing! I hear so much about pumpkin spice lattes and it's something I've never, ever thought to try. Maybe I have to change that this Autumn!

    Do you think it would work if I skipped the coffee and substituted hot chocolate instead?
