Recipe Ingredients
- 120 millilitres strong brewed coffee, or 2 shots espresso
- 480 millilitres milk
- 60 grams pumpkin purée
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus extra for topping
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 120 millilitres whipping cream (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons caramel sauce (for topping)
Methods
1. Brew the Coffee
Prepare 2 shots of espresso or use a dark roast coffee brewed strong.
2. Prepare the Pumpkin Base
In a saucepan, mix 480 millilitres of milk, 60 grams of pumpkin purée, 2 tablespoons of caster sugar, and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar.
Add ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon of ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and ⅛ teaspoon of ground cloves. Stir well to combine.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and warm the mixture, stirring constantly, until hot but not boiling (around 3-4 minutes).
Once the mixture is hot, add ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract.
3. Prepare the Whipping Cream
In a mixing bowl, whip 120 millilitres of whipping cream until soft peaks form, sweetening slightly if desired.
4. Serve
Divide the strong coffee or espresso evenly between 2 mugs, then pour in the hot pumpkin-milk mixture, stirring to combine.
Top the Pumpkin Spice Coffee Latte with whipped cream and drizzle caramel sauce over it. Sprinkle some cinnamon on top for a nice finish.
Tips for Perfect Pumpkin Spice Coffee Latte
Blend for Smooth Texture: To achieve a silky texture, blend the pumpkin mixture with milk before heating. This will ensure that the pumpkin purée is well incorporated.
Sweetness Level: Adjust the sugar to your liking as the sweetness of the pumpkin can vary. You can add more or less depending on your taste.
Extra Creaminess: Replace some of the milk with whipping cream to create a creamier consistency.
Variations
Caramel Pumpkin Latte: Add a splash of caramel syrup (about 10-15ml) to the milk mixture for a sweet, buttery flavour that complements the pumpkin.
Spicy Chai Pumpkin Latte: Add a chai tea bag to the milk mixture while heating for a spicier, chai-infused note.
Cinnamon Whipped Cream: Add a pinch of cinnamon to the whipped cream for an extra boost of flavour.
