Keto Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe.

My husband and I recently started keto this past week. What a time to start – this is the time of year when I crave all of those yummy comfort foods and of course my fave pumpkin spice coffee drinks that are full of sugar. So I was determined to come up with a recipe to duplicate my beloved bevy but make it keto friendly. Here is my Keto Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe, at only 2 grams of net carbs.

Keto Pumpkin Spice Latte

Ingredients:

2 cups of fresh brewed coffee
1/4 cup of pumpkin puree
2 Tbsp of butter
1 cup of almond milk
2 tsp of vanilla extract
2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice (make sure there’s no added sugar)
3 packets of stevia
2 Tbsp of heavy whipping cream
Optional – MCT oil or coconut oil

You will need:

A handheld frother. I literally have a love affair with mine. Click here for mine.

Directions:

In a pot over medium heat mix together pumpkin puree, butter, almond milk, vanilla extract and pumpkin pie spice. (Make it a bulletproof coffee by adding a little MCT oil or coconut oil!) Bring to a bubble.
While the pumpkin mixture warms in the pot, brew two cups of coffee.
Stir the coffee into the pumpkin mixture stirring well.
Add the heavy whipping cream and stevia.
Using a handheld frother (linking mine here), gently whip all together in the pot.
Pour into two mugs and enjoy either hot or cold.
Optional – Top it off with a little extra whipped cream and some pumpkin pie spice. (To make homemade whipped cream, mix some whipping cream and a sprinkle of stevia in a mixing bowl with a blender until whipped cream forms).

Sooooo much better than the typical sugary version at your local coffee shop and healthier too!
