Preparation

Step 1

Combine all ingredients in a small bow. Mix well. Store in an airtight container for up to one year.

Pumpkin Spice Latte:
2 tablespoons canned pure pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice mix, plus more to garnish freshly ground black pepper, a pinch
2 tablespoons white granulated sugar (Splenda or Stevia)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup half and half (whole milk, reduced fat or skim milk if you must)
1/4 cup hot espresso OR strong brewed coffeesweetened whipped cream for serving

Combine the milk, pumpkin, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, pepper and vanilla in a medium microwave safe bowl, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and vent with a small hole. Microwave until the milk is hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk vigorously until the milk mixture is foamy, about 30 seconds.

Pour the espresso or coffee into a large mug and add the foamed milk. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice.
