Preparation

How to prepare Pumpkin spice latte

To prepare the pumpkin spice latte, start with the pumpkin cream: clean the pumpkin 1 by removing the skin, seeds, and fibers, then cut 5.6 oz (160 gr) of pulp into cubes 3.

Place the pumpkin cubes in a large baking dish 4, cover with plastic wrap 5, pierce the surface, and cook in the microwave on high power for 6 minutes 6. If you don't have a microwave, you can steam the pumpkin: it will take about 10 to 12 minutes.

Once cooked, transfer the pumpkin to an immersion blender jar 7 and blend 8 to obtain a smooth and homogeneous puree 9. Set aside. 

Now proceed with the syrup: in a small saucepan, pour the water 10, sugar 11, and spices 12. 

Add the pumpkin cream 13 and bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat for about 2 or 3 minutes, continuing to stir. Set the syrup aside and let it cool 14. Move on to the whipped cream: pour the cold cream into a bowl 15 and add the powdered sugar. 

Beat with an electric mixer 16 until you achieve a firm and stiff consistency 17. Now focus on the frothed milk: pour the milk into a large glass 18. 

Then take a frother 19 to create the foam 20. Finally, prepare the coffee. You are ready to assemble the cups: pour the pumpkin syrup at the bottom 21. 

Add a shot of coffee 22, then pour the frothed milk 23 and stir 24.

Finish by garnishing with plenty of whipped cream 25 and a sprinkle of cinnamon 26. Your pumpkin spice latte is ready to be enjoyed 27!

Storage

It is recommended to consume the pumpkin spice latte immediately. 

The pumpkin syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for 2 days, covered with plastic wrap or in an airtight container.

Tip

As an alternative to frothed milk, you can simply add milk or mix it with a little whipped cream to make it less liquid

You can replace cow's milk and cream with other types of plant-based beverages to obtain a vegan or lactose-free version.

Instead of butternut squash, you can use any other variety of pumpkin available.
