Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of your choice)
- 1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or raw honey
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice mix (or to taste)
- Optional: 1-2 scoops collagen powder
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place all of your ingredients—including the almond milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup or honey, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and optional collagen powder—into a blender.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture thoroughly until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency with no lumps.
- Store the Creamer: Pour the blended creamer into a glass bottle fitted with a lid and refrigerate.
- Shake Before Use: Shake the bottle vigorously just before adding the creamer to your coffee, as it will naturally separate during storage.
- Serve: Add the creamer to hot or iced coffee as desired and enjoy the seasonal flavor.
- Storage: Keep the creamer refrigerated and use it within 5 days for the best freshness and taste.
Notes
- The creamer will separate after sitting, so shaking well before each use is essential.
- Use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, to avoid added sugars and spices.
- Adjust the sweetness and spice level to your personal preference by varying the maple syrup and pumpkin pie spice quantities.
- For a richer creamer, substitute almond milk with dairy milk or half-and-half if not dairy-free.
- Adding collagen powder is optional and adds protein and potential health benefits without altering the flavor much.
