Equipment
- whisker
- Blender
Ingredients
- 2 cups pumpkin puree homemade or store-bought
- 1 cup whole milk or plant-based milk of your choice
- 1 cup coffee espresso, brewed coffee, or a coffee alternative
- 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin spice mix cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves
- 2 tablespoons sweetener erythritol, monk fruit, stevia, or a mix of these
- 2 tablespoons frothed milk optional, for a creamy top
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon for garnish
Instructions
If you're using fresh pumpkin, peel, cube, and cook the pumpkin in a pot with a little water and a cinnamon stick. After 25-30 minutes, mash or blend the pumpkin into a smooth puree.
Brew a cup of your preferred coffee. You can use espresso, filtered coffee, or even a decaf option.
In a saucepan, heat the pumpkin puree with the milk, pumpkin spice mix, and sweetener. Stir well and allow it to warm over low heat, being careful not to boil it.
While the pumpkin and milk mixture is warming, froth the remaining milk with a milk frother or by shaking it in a jar. This step is optional but will give your PSL a nice creamy top.
In a mug, pour the brewed coffee, then add the pumpkin-spice mixture. Top it with frothed milk and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for garnish.
