This 5-Minute Warm Vegan Pumpkin Spiced Latte is perfectly warming on a cold autumn day! Full of spice and super quick to make, you won’t even look at buying one again!
We love all things pumpkin spiced, but the lattes that you can buy in high street coffee shops are often packed full of calories and sugar – and not to mention the price you gotta pay too…
An added bonus of making your own Pumpkin Spiced Latte is that you can control everything about it; the strength of the coffee, the sweetness, the amount of pumpkin, and the amount of mixed spice. Not to mention that if you make it this way, you’re actually using vegetables in your drink!
This recipe is super quick and really easy – the perfect treat for an autumn day!
Ingredients For This Latte:
Here’s a quick overview of the pumpkin spice latte ingredients that I like to use to make this recipe:
- Espresso: Either two shots of espresso or about 1/2 cup of extra-strong brewed coffee. Caffeine or decaf is up to you!
- Dairy-free Milk: Feel free to use whatever kind of milk you prefer here. I usually make my lattes with my homemade oat milk nowadays, but just about any dairy-free milk will work.
- Pumpkin purée: I just use canned pumpkin purée, but you can use homemade pumpkin purée if you happen to have some on hand. (Please note, though, that this is different than canned pumpkin pie filling, which includes extra sweeteners and spices.)
- Maple syrup: This is also my preferred natural sweetener for this recipe, the amount of which you can adjust to taste. That said, feel free to use whatever sweetener you prefer in this recipe.
- Pumpkin pie spice: Which you can either purchase store-bought or mix up yourself.
