Gluten Free, Dairy Free Pumpkin Spice Latte Recipe

Is there anything better than a pumpkin spice latte on a chilly Fall day?

Yes, I have had the “real deal” Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte that everyone talks about. And yes, it is every bit as amazing as they said it would be. BUT, I just cannot justify the ingredients, the sugar content and that price tag!

Here is a gluten free, dairy free pumpkin spice latte recipe that is sure to satiate your Starbucks craving while keeping both your body and your wallet much happier.

SERVES: 2
PREP TIME: 7 minutes
COOK TIME: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree (yes, there’s actual real pumpkin in this recipe!)
  • 1 Tbsp full fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/8 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 8 drops liquid stevia, or 1-2 Tbsp sweetener of your choice (ie honey, maple syrup, etc.)
  • 1 1/2-2 cups strongly brewed coffee
  • 3/4-1 cup full fat coconut milk (or milk of your choice)

Don’t have all those spices? No worries! You can swap them out for pre-made pumpkin pie spice if you want. 

TIP: Pumpkin puree is often on sale at the stores this time of year, but if you want to pinch your pennies even tighter, try making your own in a slow cooker instead!

Instructions:

  1. Whisk together the pumpkin puree, 1 Tbsp coconut milk, spices and sweetener in a small bowl.
  2. In a small saucepan, whisk together the coffee and pumpkin mixture, heating until desired temperature.
  3. In a separate saucepan, heat remaining coconut milk (just before boiling) and froth with a handheld frother (here’s the one I have).
  4. Divide coffee mixture into 2 cups and pour foamed milk over each.

Try topping with coconut whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon- whatever suits you!
