Autumn sweetness in a cup
Enjoy the enveloping warmth of autumn with this pumpkin spiced latte, a drink that's as comforting as it is balanced. Combining the natural sweetness of date purée with the velvety richness of milk (or plant-based beverage), this low FODMAP, 100 % vegetarian recipe offers a healthy alternative to the classic pumpkin spice latte.
Each sip reveals a perfect blend of warming spices, vanilla and full-bodied coffee, for a moment of pure comfort - without excess sugar or digestive discomfort. Ideal to accompany a chilly morning or a cocooning break, this homemade latté takes just a few minutes to prepare, but promises a pleasure worthy of an artisanal coffee.
Gourmet tips :
☕ For a café-bar effect: add a little milk foam or a touch of ground cinnamon on top before serving.
🍪 To accompany : Enjoy it with a low-FODMAP oatmeal cookie, a slice of gluten-free banana bread or some toasted walnuts.
🎃 Caffeine-free version : Replace espresso with chicory or rooibos concentrate for a smooth version.
🌰 For extra creaminess: use barista almond milk or a mixture of half milk and half lactose-free cream.
🍁 A touch of sweetness: A drizzle of maple syrup before serving will enhance the autumnal flavours.
