Did you know that one of the Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) favorite foods was pumpkin?
Ingredients:
- 1 Nespresso coffee pod (choose a strong variety for best flavor)
- 1 cup oat milk
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
- 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (plus a sprinkle for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or sweetener of choice
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
-
Brew Your Espresso: Using your Nespresso machine, brew a shot of espresso (or a small cup of coffee for a milder version) directly into your latte mug.
-
Heat the Oat Milk: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the oat milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk the mixture continuously until it's hot and frothy. If you have a milk frother, you can use it to make the oat milk mixture even frothier after heating.
-
Combine & Serve: Pour the pumpkin oat milk mixture over the brewed espresso. Stir to combine.
-
Garnish & Enjoy: If desired, top with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice. Sip and savor the flavors of the season!
Note: Feel free to adjust the amount of sweetener or pumpkin pie spice to match your taste preferences. And if you're in a hurry, you can heat the oat milk mixture in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes, but be sure to watch it closely to avoid overflowing.
Now you've got the perfect homemade pumpkin spice latte, without the café queue! Enjoy your cozy, creamy, and oh-so-autumnal treat!
