Ingredient substitutions

Do you see something in the ingredient list that you would rather skip? No worries; consider these alternatives:

  • Unsweetened almond milk: If you're not a fan of almond milk, use other low-carb alternatives like unsweetened coconut milk or cashew milk.
  • Granulated erythritol: Use stevia or monk fruit sweetener as a sugar-free alternative if you don't like the taste of erythritol.
  • Pumpkin spice: If you don't have this spice, make your blend with cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves, and ginger powder.
  • Whipped cream: Substitute whipped cream with coconut whipped cream for a dairy-free option.

Additional ingredients

Enhance the flavors of your keto-friendly latte with these optional ingredients:

  • Vanilla extract: Infuse a hint of vanilla by adding a dash to your simmering almond milk.
  • Cocoa powder: For chocolate lovers, mix a teaspoon of cocoa powder into your coffee before blending in the spiced milk.
  • Nutmeg: Garnish with a touch of freshly grated nutmeg on the whipped cream for a spicy finish.

How to make Keto Pumpkin Spice Latte: step-by-step guide

Cooking methods

  • Simmering
  • Brewing

Preparation steps

  1. Gather and measure all the ingredients.
  2. Separate the almond milk into two halves. Use one part for simmering with spices and the other for frothing.

Cooking steps

  1. Mix half the almond milk with pumpkin puree, erythritol, and the pumpkin spice blend in a saucepan. Simmer on medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes, then set aside.
  2. Brew your coffee or espresso to your liking.
  3. Pour your brewed coffee into a mug. Gently pour the pumpkin spice almond milk mixture over the coffee.
  4. Froth the remaining almond milk until hot and slightly bubbly.
  5. Add the frothed almond milk to the mug.
  6. Finish with a dollop of whipped cream and a dash of pumpkin spice, if desired.

Chef's pro tip

Keep a close eye on the saucepan when warming the almond milk mixture. Avoid bringing it to a boil to prevent curdling and loss of creaminess. Maintain a gentle simmer and stir occasionally for an even mix.

How to make it healthier?

  • Go organic: Choose organic pumpkin puree or make your own for a healthier recipe.
  • Adjust sweetness: Reduce the erythritol by a tablespoon for a milder sweetness level.

Time-saving tips

  • Pre-mixed pumpkin spice: Save time by purchasing a pre-mixed pumpkin spice instead of blending your own.
  • Quick brew: Opt for instant espresso powder over traditional brewing for a quicker caffeine fix.

What can I prepare ahead of time?

  • Pumpkin puree: For fresh puree, halve a small pumpkin and remove the seeds and fibers. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 30-40 minutes or until tender. Scoop out the soft pumpkin and blend until smooth. Put the puree in an airtight container and keep it at room temperature or in the fridge.
  • Spice mix: Make your pumpkin spice blend in advance and store it in a sealed container in a cool, dry place.

Storage instructions

  • For the best experience, savor the keto pumpkin latte immediately after making it.
  • If there are any leftovers, seal them in an airtight container and refrigerate. It'll stay fresh for up to 2 days.
