As the leaves begin to change and the air turns crisp, there’s one seasonal favorite that warms our hearts and fills our homes with cozy aromas: pumpkin spice! Nothing quite captures the essence of autumn like a perfectly crafted pumpkin spice latte—especially when it’s dairy-free.

This dairy free delight has got to be the most satisfying, creamy PSL I've ever had.  It tops any other in my recollection of the many many pumpkin spice lattes I've downed in my lifetime.

The pumpkin puree lends to the thick creaminess of this latte and if you're not a fan of coffee, you can simply leave it out (or if you're serving to kids) and the warm spiced pumpkin milk is all you need.

Why do we love pumpkin spice?  Pumpkin spice has become synonymous with the fall season. It’s not just about the flavors; it’s about the experience—the smell of spices wafting through the air, the joy of gathering with friends, and the comfort of a warm drink in your hands. This dairy-free version ensures that everyone can indulge in this beloved seasonal treat.  If you're not looking for a dairy free beverage, then use your milk of choice.

Why This Recipe Works - Using pumpkin puree adds a natural sweetness and a rich, creamy texture, while the blend of spices brings warmth to every sip. The dairy-free milk not only makes this latte accessible for everyone but also adds its own unique flavor profile—coconut milk offers a tropical twist, while almond milk adds nuttiness.  My favorite is the Elmhurst brand coconut and cashew barista blend of milk

Pumpkin Spice Latte (Dairy Free)

For the Latte:

• 1 cup dairy free milk such as coconut or cashew (you want a very creamy milk such as Elmhurst Cashew & Coconut Barista blend)
• 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or my turmeric chai spice blend)
• 1 teaspoon maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla (I use vanilla paste)
• 1 shot espresso (or 2 if you like it stronger). You can actually use instant coffee for a short cut.
• A pinch of sea salt

Optional - whipped cream (dairy free), cinnamon, cinnamon stick or pumpkin pie spice for garnish


In a saucepan slowly heat the milk and pumpkin puree.  Stir gently.

Add the pumpkin pie spice or use my turmeric chai spice blend for a unique flavor and powerful anti-inflammatory hit.

Add the maple syrup and vanilla then either whisk to froth or use a handheld electric frother.

Add the espresso or coffee and a small pinch salt then whisk or froth again. ( I use a battery operated frother for ultimate foam)
​
Put into your mug and adorn with a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice  or a cinnamon stick or perhaps some non dairy whipped cream.
