Do you want to make the perfect pumpkin spice latte? This recipe is so easy and tastes just like the ones from Starbucks. It’s made in the slow cooker, which means you can make a large batch for a party.

This year Starbucks has a pumpkin cream cold brew which you must try! Though for a chilly fall day, I love a warm latte. Want a non-coffee pumpkin drink? Try my Slow Cooker Pumpkin Hot Chocolate.

Why this recipe works

These slow cooker pumpkin spice lattes would be fun for after trick-or-treating or for a fall brunch. This is even great on those snowy days when the kids are playing. Make them hot chocolate and make yourself a treat too. Note- I don’t like my coffee overly sweet, so add the sugar to your taste.

I start with freshly brewed coffee because I know most of us don’t have an espresso machine. I stir in half and half, canned pumpkin, spices, vanilla extract, and sugar. And top with whipped cream.

Ingredients

ingredients for pumpkin spice lattes on a table.
  • Freshly brewed strong coffee – I like Starbucks Pike Place but you can use your favorite blend. You’ll want to brew your coffee very strong. Also, you want to measure out 7 cups with a measuring cup, do not rely on the lines on the coffee carafe, they are not accurate.
  • Pumpkin puree- You want to make sure it is pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling, here is my homemade pumpkin puree recipe.
  • Heavy cream– You can also use light cream (whipping cream) or half and half.
  • Flavorings -You want to add the flavorings to get that pumpkin spice flavor, like vanilla, ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon.
  • Sugar– I add just a touch of sugar for you won’t be able to taste the spices if it’s too sweet.
  • Whipped cream for serving – canned or homemade.
  • Additional nutmeg – for topping, this will make the lattes look pretty and it tastes great.

      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!!

          Btw….(just between “us”) hopefully Starbucks isnt listening….you hit the nail on the head with this one! Only instead of heavy cream…Starbucks uses light condensed milk & pumpkin puree plus spices. 😉

        Hi Dorothy! LOL I would serve it on the side, pour a bit (or a lot) in your cup before adding the latte.

      Has anyone tried leaving this on warm for a few hours? I thought about making this for work, but it would probably be more of people stopping by to get it throughout the work day. Not sure how long it might hold up?

        I’m unsure how the coffee would taste after being chilled then reheated. Also it would probably take 2+ hours to rehaeat even on high. If you try it and it still takes good, please let us know!

      I actually made this today. It is good. Not a real sweet drink, so if you like it sweet, you should add more sugar. Kind of tastes like you are eating pumpkin pie. I used Columbian coffee brewed light not dark. I also used a pumpkin spiced flavor whipped cream from the can. Pretty delicious. I definitely recommend if you love pumpkin pie!

      It is great!! Although when using Dark Roast more sugar is needed obviously.
