vanilla stevia, allulose, or monk fruit to taste

RIP pumpkin-spiced latte

step-by-step PSL recipe

our own pumpkin spice latte recipe is taken from the author of ketotarian and is a healthy upgrade to the sugary starbucks classic! plant-based and keto-friendly, it removes the massive amounts of sugar associated with the original and replaces it with stevia, allulose, monk fruit, or another low-carb, natural sweetener.

these alternatives not only taste great but will keep you satiated and avoid that “hangry” crash that’s associated with a massive sugar hit! happy brewing.

step 01. brew your coffee (we like to use the aeropress which provides a little more body to the coffee)

step 02. add in milk, pumpkin pie spice, organic canned pumpkin, and the alternative natural sweetener of your choice

step 03. mix it with a milk frother

step 04. top with a sprinkle of cinnamon and voila, your very own, healthily upgraded, pumpkin-spiced latte
