It’s National Coffee Day, y’all AND it’s #PumpkinWeek! So naturally I had to share my very favorite copycat fall coffee recipe today.

That’s right, I made a Pumpkin Spice Latte at home with a sauce made with real pumpkin puree. It was absolutely delicious and pretty darn close to the Starbucks version but much cheaper and faster (no drive thru lines!). Scroll down for my recipe and let me know what you think!

I have always been a PSL fan! Now I can make it at home!

Copycat Pumpkin Spice Latte

Ingredients

  • 4 oz strong brewed coffee or 2 shots of espresso
  • 5 oz warmed milk frothing optional
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin spice sauce recipe below
  • whipped cream for topping
  • cinnamon for topping

For the pumpkin spice sauce:

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Brew your coffee or espresso.
  • In a small saucepan add all four of the pumpkin sauce ingredients and heat over med low, stirring continuously.
  • Stir the sauce until creamy and just about to boil. Remove from heat.
  • I warm my milk for 30 seconds in the microwave and then froth it in my frothing jar. You can also heat on low in a saucepan.
  • Now it's time to make your latte!
  • Add a heaping tbsp of pumpkin sauce to the bottom of a mug. Keep the remaining sauce in the fridge for another few lattes throughout the week!
  • Pour brewed hot coffee on top.
  • Then add warmed (frothing optional) milk.
  • Stir slightly to combine.
  • Top with whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon.

In a small saucepan add all four of the pumpkin sauce ingredients and heat over med low, stirring continuously.

One of my favorite things about this drink is that I use real pumpkin.

Starbucks uses a sugary pumpkin syrup and even though I love their PSL, the flavor of real spiced pumpkin can’t be beat!

Stir the sauce until creamy and just about to boil. Remove from heat.

I warm my milk for 30 seconds in the microwave and then froth it in my frothing jar.

You can also heat on low in a saucepan until warmed but be careful not to scald it.

Add a heaping tbsp of pumpkin sauce to the bottom of a mug.

Pour brewed hot coffee on top. I used about 1/2 cup for a small mug.

Then add warmed (frothing optional) milk.

Stir slightly to combine.

Top with whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon.

Serve right away and enjoy!

📦 Unpacking forever and ever....
Everyone keeps asking if we are settled yet. Nope. Still sorting, unpacking,  donating, rearranging, organizing, and eating a cookie every now and then.
