Slow Cooker Gingerbread Latte

By Kathy_Hester

A vegan version of a gingerbread scented latte from your favorite coffee-shop.

Ingredients

• This recipe requires a small 1 – 1.5 quart slow cooker.* (You can double or triple the recipe and use a larger one if you like.)
• Makes 2 servings (unless you drink a venti and then it’s just one serving)
• soy-free, gluten-free
• 1/4 cup (63ml) cold brewed coffee concentrate or 1 cup (250ml) regular brewed coffee - see http://www.cookography.com/2007/cold-brewed-coffee-using-a-french-press
• 1/4 cup (63ml) So Delicious Coconut creamer original flavor
• 2 cup (500ml) Unsweetened So Delicious Coconut Milk (can use vanilla or plain just adjust sweetener)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
• pinch ground clove
• pinch ground allspice
• pinch nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon molasses (optional)
• Sweetener to taste: brown sugar, stevia, agave nectar, or maple syrup, etc.
• (I used 1/2 packet Nu-Stevia)

Preparation

Step 1

Put everything but sweetener in the slow cooker. Add molasses. Whisk until ingredients are well combined. Taste and add your choice of sweetener until it’s the way you like your latte.

Cook for 3 hours on low or 1 1⁄2 to 2 hours on high. You are just heating it, so you could also do this on the stove top if you are in a hurry.

I like to put drinks on in a slow cooker before a dinner party and then it’s piping hot and ready to serve with dessert.
