Why You’ll Love Homemade Pumpkin Spice Creamer
Why buy coffee creamer from the store when you can make this delicious Pumpkin Spice Creamer at home? Like many of you, I was on a coffee creamer kick for years, until they discontinued my favorite brand and then I was at a loss.
I don’t like the flavor of creamers with artificial sweetener, but I also don’t want a creamer with tons of sugar. So I decided to start making my own, which can be easily customized to your liking!
- Easy To Make: Just about 10 minutes is all you need to make this creamer and have enough to last you for the week.
- Customizable: Customize the flavors in this homemade creamer to your liking, also adjust the levels of sweetness.
- No Artificial Ingredients: Nothing artificial in this homemade creamer recipe, unlike most store bought varieties.
How To Make Homemade Coffee Creamer
This recipe is, of course, for pumpkin spice creamer, but you can customize it for many different flavors! Don’t like flavored creamer? Just leave out the spices!
- STEP 1 – ADD INGREDIENTS TO POT: Combine the milk, cream, vanilla extract, maple syrup, pumpkin puree and spices in a small saucepan. Add two cinnamon sticks, whisk together and bring to a simmer for 1 minute.
- STEP 2 – REMOVE FROM HEAT AND STEEP: Remove the creamer from the heat and let the mixture steep for 10 minutes.
- STEP 3 – CHILL: Remove the cinnamon sticks, let cool and then use in coffee, espresso or tea.
Can You Make This Coffee Creamer Without Dairy?
Swap out the milk and the cream for your dairy-free milk of choice. Almond, soy, rice and coconut milk are popular choices. Just keep in mind that some of those dairy-free options do have a slight flavor to them.
Why Is Homemade Coffee Creamer Better?
So many reasons. First of all, it just tastes better. I’ve gone through so many store bought creamers since my favorite brand went off the shelves and there’s nothing better than homemade coffee creamer.
Another reason you’re going to love this pumpkin spice creamer is that it’s made with all natural ingredients. No chemicals or additives, no hydrogenated oils or trans fats. So you can feel good about enjoying that perfect cup of coffee in the morning!
Lastly, homemade creamer is going to be less expensive than store bought!
How Long Does This Coffee Creamer Last In The Fridge?
You can enjoy this creamer for up to a week in the refrigerator. Make sure to store it in an air tight container or mason jar so that it stays fresh and doesn’t absorb other flavors from the refrigerator.
Give the creamer a quick shake before using as the spices will settle at the bottom while sitting.
