Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1½ cups unsweetened almond milk
- ¾ cup cooked pumpkin (both canned and homemade work)
- ¼ tsp liquid stevia extract (more or less to taste)
- 1 tsp allspice
- ¾ tsp cinnamon
- dash ginger
Directions
- Whiz all ingredients together in a blender, then heat in the microwave (fast) or on the stovetop (oh ye of infinite patience). Serve steaming hot.
Notes
This latte is thick and creamy, 'cause that's how I like it. :-) If you like yours thinner, just use more almond milk and less pumpkin, and/or use homemade almond milk, as it won't have added thickeners.
Bonus: For the lazy—I mean, resourceful!—you can halve the recipe and make it right in a tall mug using a stick blender. (My method of choice. ;-)) Then just microwave and serve. The ultimate in instant gratification—and easy clean-up!
