Pumpkin Spice Latte
The Pumpkin Spice Latte blends brewed coffee, milk, and pumpkin puree with warming pumpkin pie spices and maple syrup. The mixture is whisked and heated until just simmering, creating a smooth, spiced coffee drink with a balance of sweetness and pumpkin flavor. It is best served warm immediately to maintain an even texture.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup milk (4 ounces; any type you prefer)
- 1/2 cup brewed coffee (4 ounces)
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin 19 grams, puree
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (20 grams; plus more to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the ingredients and use a whisk to stir, incorporating everything smoothly.
- As soon as the mixture starts to simmer, stir well to make sure it's evenly warmed up, then pour into a mug and serve right away. You can adjust the flavoring to taste, adding more maple syrup (I like an extra 1/2 tablespoon), or more spice, depending on your preference. You can also add more coffee for a stronger coffee flavor. This recipe is best served warm right away, as the pumpkin will start to separate as it sits, but you can simply give it a stir to reincorporate everything again.

Notes
- Nutrition info is approximate and for the whole batch made with almond milk.
- For a stronger coffee flavor, blend brewed coffee with pumpkin, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and almond butter until smooth and serve immediately.
- This drink is best enjoyed warm and fresh, as pumpkin separation may occur if it sits too long; stirring helps reincorporate ingredients.
