Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate "Latte"
A whole-food, plant-based version of the popular Pumpkin Spice Lattes that has no coffee, no refined sugar, no dairy, but thick and creamy deliciousness.
Servings 1 mug
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 TBSP pumpkin puree
- 1 TBSP cocoa powder or cacao powder
- 2 medjool dates, pitted (or 1-2 TBSP maple syrup or honey)
- 1 tsp almond butter
- 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice
- 1 dash of salt and pepper (just trust me on this one!)
- 1 blip vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a blender or small twister jar. Blend until very smooth. You may still have some date chunks in the bottom, but it will still taste sweet all throughout if it's blended sufficiently.
- Heat through in microwave for 1 minute, or on the stove top.
- Stir in coconut cream or top with coconut whipped cream, if desired for even extra creaminess.
