Description

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons pumpkin purée
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice *See note
• 2 cups almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
• 2 1/2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (or preferred sweetener)
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup brewed espresso *See note

Directions

• In a small sauce pan, heat the pumpkin puree & spices over medium low heat. Stir constantly to combine well & prevent from burning. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
• Turn up heat to medium and add the milk. Whisk for 2-3 minutes, until heated throughout. (dont boil)
• Whisk in vanilla extract & maple syrup. Remove from heat.
• Place mixture in a blender. Blend on high until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. (This will make the milk frothy too)
• Add 1/4 cup hot espresso to each mug & pour pumpkin spice mixture on top.
• *Optional: Top with vegan whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon and garnish with a cinnamon stick (doubles as a straw). Enjoy!
