Ingredients
Scale
- ¼ cup heavy cream (or heavy whipping cream)
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or brown sugar)
- ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- Extra cinnamon for garnish
- 1 cup cold brew or strong brewed coffee
- ¼ cup milk of your choice (oat milk recommended)
Instructions
- Brew your coffee or prepare your cold brew. If using cold brew, pour it over a glass filled with ice. If using hot coffee, let it cool for a minute or two. Fill your glass about three-quarters full with coffee and a splash of milk (about 1 cup coffee and ¼ cup milk).
- In a small bowl or jar, combine ¼ cup heavy cream, 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or brown sugar), and ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice. Do not add the extra cinnamon yet.
- Whisk or froth the mixture until thick. Using a handheld frother, blend for 30-45 seconds until thick and creamy (like soft whipped cream). If whisking by hand, whisk for 2-3 minutes. If using a jar, shake vigorously for about 2 minutes.
- Using a spoon, gently scoop the pumpkin cream foam on top of your prepared coffee. Do not stir it in—you want the foam to stay on top for a layered effect.
- Sprinkle a little cinnamon and a tiny pinch of pumpkin pie spice on top of the foam. Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes
Don’t over-whip the cream; it should be thick but still pourable, like a thick milkshake. Use cold cream for best results. Adjust sweetness to taste. For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream. The foam is best fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 hours.
