Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup / 240 ml / 8 fl oz milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/4 cup / 50 g / 1.7 oz pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin
- 1 tbsp clear honey (or maple syrup)
- 1/4 to 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Garnish (optional)
- Dollop of whipped cream
- Pinch of pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, pour in the milk and add the pumpkin puree, honey, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Heat the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat and warm the mixture, stirring occasionally. Heat until the milk is hot but not boiling, about 3 to 5 minutes, ensuring the pumpkin and spices infuse well without curdling the milk.
- Mix Thoroughly: After heating, whisk the mixture vigorously to create a smooth, frothy texture that blends the pumpkin puree thoroughly with the milk.
- Serve: Pour the warm pumpkin spice milk into a mug. If desired, top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle a pinch of pumpkin pie spice on top for garnish.
Notes
- Use fresh pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin for convenience and consistent flavor.
- Adjust the amount of pumpkin pie spice to your taste preference, starting with 1/4 tsp and increasing if desired.
- Non-dairy milks like almond, oat, or soy work well if you prefer a dairy-free version.
- Do not boil the milk to prevent curdling or changing the flavor profile.
- Honey can be substituted with maple syrup for a vegan option.
