Yes, I know, I thought the very same thing when I first saw this in a magazine. However, I tried it and it's really very good! Who'd of guessed it, lol. The pumpkin melts right into the coffee and adds body and natural flavor. It's low in fat too so why not give it a try? Ingredients:
1 cup strong coffee |
2/3 cup fat-free evaporated milk |
1/4 cup pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie mix |
1 -2 teaspoon splenda sugar substitute (or to taste) |
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Combine coffee, evaporated milk, pumpkin, Splenda and pumpkin pie spice in 2-cup microwave-safe glass measure or small saucepan.
2. Heat until very hot (if using stove, use medium-low heat and stir occasionally).
3. Carefully pour into mugs.
4. TIP:
5. To make a foamy top to your latte much like your favorite coffee house creation, prepare as above.
6. Carefully transfer hot mixture into blender container; cover with lid and then hold down lid with folded towel or potholder.
7. Blend for 1 minute.
