Pumpkin Spice Latte With Coconut Milk
Description
The Pumpkin Spice Latte With Coconut Milk blends freshly brewed coffee, pumpkin puree, traditional pumpkin spices, maple syrup, and rich coconut milk in a slow cooker. The ingredients are whisked smooth and heated gently over two hours to allow the flavors to mingle fully. The coconut milk adds a creamy texture and depth of flavor, while the natural sweetness of maple syrup balances the spices.
The addition of collagen powder thickens the latte slightly and boosts its protein content but is optional. Without collagen, the latte remains vegan. Using strong brewed coffee approximates the espresso strength common in lattes, providing a robust coffee flavor that balances the pumpkin and spices.
This latte is best served warm and can be kept on the slow cooker’s low or warm setting for serving at gatherings. It is not overly sweet by default, so sweetness can be adjusted by adding more maple syrup to taste. The drink’s rich coconut milk base can be diluted slightly with almond or other dairy-free milk if a thinner consistency is preferred.

- 4 cups coffee freshly brewed
- ¼ cup pumpkin puree canned
- 2 teaspoon cinnamon

Notes
- Collagen powder is optional but adds protein and thickens the latte slightly.
- Use pure maple syrup for natural sweetness and flavor, avoiding processed sugars.
- Chilled brewed coffee can be used; whisk more as it heats to combine the pumpkin fully.
- Keep the slow cooker on warm for gatherings; expect slight thickening over time.
- Use strong coffee since the recipe simulates an espresso base for the latte.
- Adjust sweetness by adding maple syrup gradually to taste.
- If you prefer a thinner latte, dilute with almond milk or other dairy-free milk.
