Equipment

  • Electric Hand Mixer or Frother
  • Deep Mixing Bowl
  • Clear Glass Mug
  • Whisk
  • Microwave or Small Saucepan

Ingredients
  

For the Whipped Coffee Layer

  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee high-quality for smoother taste
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar can substitute with coconut sugar
  • 2 tablespoons hot water
  • 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

For the Milk Base

  • 1 cup milk of choice dairy, almond, oat, or coconut
  • 1 tablespoon pure pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey optional for added sweetness

For Garnish

  • extra pumpkin pie spice for dusting
  • 1 cinnamon stick optional
  • whipped cream optional

Instructions
 

  • Gather all ingredients and equipment before starting. Using a small, deep bowl for whipping will help achieve the perfect texture faster.
  • In a microwave-safe glass or small saucepan, combine your milk of choice with the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and optional sweetener. Heat gently until warm but not boiling (about 90 seconds in the microwave or 2-3 minutes on low heat). Whisk thoroughly to ensure the pumpkin puree is fully incorporated.
  • In your deep bowl, combine the instant coffee, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and hot water. Using an electric hand mixer or frother, whip this mixture on high speed for about 3-5 minutes until it transforms into a thick, fluffy cloud with stiff peaks.
  • Pour your warm pumpkin-infused milk into a clear glass mug. Gently spoon the whipped coffee mixture on top, creating a distinct layer.
  • Dust the top with a light sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice. For an extra indulgent touch, add a dollop of whipped cream and insert a cinnamon stick as a stirrer. Serve immediately.

Notes

Using instant coffee is essential - regular ground coffee won't whip properly.
The sugar is structurally important for creating a stable foam.
The whipped coffee layer can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator.
For a keto-friendly version, use unsweetened almond milk and replace sugar with erythritol or monk fruit sweetener.
