Yes it’s that time of year again for pumpkin everything. These Slow Cooker Pumpkin Spice Lattes are just perfect for a fall get together, and couldn’t get any easier. I start with a good brewed coffee because I know most of us don’t have an espresso machine. I stir in half and half, canned pumpkin, spices and sugar. And top with whipped cream. These slow cooker pumpkin spice lattes would be fun for after trick-or-treating, or for a fall brunch. Note- I don’t like my coffee overly sweet, so add the sugar to your taste.
I spent the weekend in Seattle for the International Food Blogger Conference. I’ll be posting about that later this week. I’m glad to be home and back to my routine for sure!
Here is the YouTube Video I made of these lattes! You can follow me on YouTube here.
I used aerosol whipped cream for this, but I often make it from scratch. Here is a good recipe if you want to make your own : Homemade Whipped Cream
- 7 cups hot brewed coffee(measure it after it is brewed)- I use Starbucks Pike's Place Roast
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1½ cups half and half or heavy cream
- ½ tsp. ground nutmeg
- ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 7 Tbsp. white sugar
- aerosol whipped cream (or homemade if your feeling ambitious)
- nutmeg for garnish
- In a 5 quart or larger slow cooker, add the coffee, pumpkin, half and half, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla and sugar. Stir.
- Cover and cook on HIGH for 45min- 1 hour, or until hot.
- Stir, and serve topped with whipped cream and nutmeg.
Anyone ever tried making this with fireball cinnamon whiskey? Alcohol is necessary to tolerate my family gatherings :p any tips on how much to use?
Hi Dorothy! LOL I would serve it on the side, pour a bit (or a lot) in your cup before adding the latte.
Where did you get those cute pumpkin mugs?
pottery barn!
Made it!
It was delicious. Also made 2 batches. I froze the first in ice cube trays and just chilled the second
Blended them together. Homemade deliciousness, pumpkin spiced Frappuccinos!!!
Love the pumpkin mugs!!!!
Love the pumpkin mugs! Do you remember where you found them
Pottery barn!
I made it for my church and it was a huge hit! The only thing was that I prefer to use a bit more cinnamon and a whole pint of half and half to tame it down a bit. It was delicious! Wonderful recipe!!
I love the half and half idea.
Could you use skim milk to make it like a “skinny” or fat free latte?
You could Emily, it would taste different for sure. Maybe add a little fat free half and half to make it less watery?
Has anyone tried this with full fat coconut milk?
Did you try it? Love coconut milk!
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I’m going to be making this for a Favorite things party! 🙂
Wow, this recipe is delicious! Easy to make – you don’t need the whipped cream.
