Healthy Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte
It sounds too good to be true, but it IS true! Pumpkin Spice Latte's that are as healthy as they are yummy - not just an urban myth...
I found this recipe at The Yummy Mummy Kitchen - Marina is all about creating simple healthy recipes for her family (and readers). The recipe for this is so easy, you will saying, Why didn't I think of this myself?!
Ingredients:
Non-fat whipped topping (like Cool Whip) - she recommends TruWhip
Canned Pumpkin
1 tablespoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
Optional: Three packets sweetener (Stevia or Splenda)
Directions:
Mix non-fat whipped topping, canned pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, and sweetener (optional) in a large mixing bowl. After it's all mixed together, spread the topping in a flat pan or tray, and pop it in the freezer. Once the mixture is frozen, use a cute pumpkin shaped cookie cutter to cut out the adorable pumpkin flavored "creamers" and drop it in your morning coffee for a creamy dreamy treat!
Or, if you are lazy like me, no need to freeze the mixture - just save it in a Tupperware in the fridge and spoon it into your to-go cup before running out of the house (trust me, her photos are way prettier than mine ended up looking this morning).
Try it out!
Um, that looks amazing! Want one now!
