Prep Time 3 minutes
Cook Time 2 minutes
Servings: 1 latte
Course: Drinks
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup dairy-free milk almond, oat, or coconut
  • 1 tablespoon pure pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or a pinch of Stevia in the Raw for a lower-sugar option
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee or 1 shot espresso

Method
 

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla.
  2. Warm until steaming, whisking so the pumpkin blends in smoothly. Do not let it boil.
  3. Pour the hot coffee into your favorite mug and add the warm spiced milk. Stir to combine.
  4. Top with a little extra pumpkin pie spice if you like.

Notes

Alpha-gal reactions vary from person to person. Always read every label, from your milk to your pumpkin spice blend, and choose what works for your body. If you manage histamine issues, adjust the spices to what you tolerate and use the freshest ingredients you can.
Quick version: Skip the pumpkin puree. Warm the milk with the maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla, then combine with your coffee.
Iced version: Let the coffee cool or brew it ahead and chill it. Shake or blend all ingredients with the cold milk, then pour over a tall glass of ice.
Whenever you can, choose organic ingredients to keep your list as clean and simple as possible.
