Pumpkin Spiced Latte

• Start by brewing a strong cup of coffee or pulling 2 shots of espresso. Set aside.
• Pour the milk into a saucepan. Heat the milk until it's hot but not boiling, stirring frequently to prevent scalding.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the canned pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract until well combined.
• Once the milk is heated, reduce the heat to low and whisk in the pumpkin mixture until it's fully incorporated into the milk. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Pour the hot brewed coffee or espresso into the pumpkin milk mixture. Stir well to combine.
• Carefully pour the pumpkin spice latte into serving mugs.
• If desired, top each latte with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon or a cinnamon stick for an extra touch of flavor and decoration.
• Serve your homemade pumpkin spice lattes immediately while they're still hot, accompanied by a doughnut. Sip and savor the cozy flavors of fall!
