BEVERAGES: LOW CARB PUMPKIN LATTE (click here to print)

low carb Pumpkin Latte

Serves 2
Whipping pumpkin into a latte makes the ultimate seasonal coffee experience. Thick and rich, you'll love savoring every sip.
Ingredients:
  • 3 tablespoons cooked or canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 cup light cream or half-and-half
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons pumpkin pie sugar-free syrup (like DaVinci http://www.davincigourmet.com/products/sugar_free_flavored_syrups/)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup freshly brewed espresso or 1/2 cup strong coffee

Directions:
  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat the cream with the pumpkin until it combines, then add sugar-free syrup and cinnamon. Continue to heat, stirring continually, until hot and steamy.
  2. Carefully pour pumpkin mixture into a blender, place lid on blender and then hold a towel over the top (in case hot liquid escapes). Blend on high for 20 to 30 seconds or until mixture foams.
  3. Pour into a tall heat-proof glass, then add the espresso or coffee. Dust with extra ground cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice and serve immediately.
