Instructions:
- Brew Coffee or Espresso: Start by brewing a cup of your favorite coffee or making 2 shots of espresso. You can use a coffee maker, French press, or espresso machine.
- Heat Milk: In a small saucepan, heat the almond milk over medium-low heat until it’s hot but not boiling. Be sure to stir frequently to prevent scalding.

Tips for Recipe Success:
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup, depending on your taste preferences.
- You can use any milk of your choice, such as almond milk, oat milk, or regular dairy milk.
- Be cautious not to overheat the milk, as it can curdle. Heat it just until hot, then remove it from the heat source.
This healthy Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe allows you to enjoy the beloved fall flavor without the excess sugar and calories found in many coffee shop versions. Plus, it’s a great way to warm up during the crisp autumn days!
