Under 100 Calories Pumpkin Spice Latte

Under 100 calories, make a Pumpkin Spice Latte at home with just coffee, milk of choice, pumpkin, spices and a frother.

Creamy and Dreamy- give this twist to your morning coffee a routine a try.

When I entered this recipe on MY Fitness Pal calorie counter, I couldn’t believe my frothy and creamy pumpkin spice latte only has 78 calories. 78! Unsweetened oat milk and a dash of maple syrup are all I use to sweeten this incredible coffee treat. A 16 oz Grande Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks packs a whopping 390 calories! And hold on- it has 50 grams of sugar!

We can do better and not give up any of the flavor or creaminess.

A little vanilla, oat milk, pumpkin, maple syrup and HOT coffee are about all you need- the secret is frothing!

Why this recipe works:

  • Vanilla and the pumpkin pie spice add a ton of flavor without any calories. Cinnamon works perfectly as well.
  • Using unsweetened oat milk provides the perfect low calorie back drop for a creamy drink
  • Real maple syrup adds the perfect amount of sweetness
  • Canned pumpkin puree when frothed with the milk become a creamy addition without being clunky.
  • Frothing hot milk creates a coffee shop drink for a fraction of the price and the calories.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup 1 HOT strong brewed coffee

  • 1 TBSP 1 pumpkin purée

  • 1 tsp 1 pumpkin pie spice

  • 1/2 tsp 1/2 vanilla extract

  • 1/2-1 tsp 1/2-1 Real Grade A maple syrup- or to taste

  • 1/4 cup 1/4 PLUS 2 TBSP unsweetened extra creamy oat milk

Directions

  • Heat oat milk in a microwave safe container for 25 seconds. I use a mason jar.
  • Reserve 2 TBSP of hot oat milk for topping. Stir in the pumpkin purée, spices, vanilla, and maple syrup
  • With an immersion blender or frother, froth the pumpkin and oat milk mixture until foamy and creamy. Pour over the hot coffee in a large coffee mug.
  • Froth the remaining oat milk and drizzle on top to create extra foam. If desired, garnish a dusting with pumpkin pie spice.

Notes

  • Purchase my favorite frother HERE.
  • If you don’t have oat milk, try 2% milk or any creamer of choice. The calorie count will be different. I use Planet Oat.
  • See below for lots of pumpkin recipes to try with that can of pumpkin purée you now have to use up.

I use a wide mouth mason jar to heat up my milk, but any wide mouth microwave glass will do.
