Why buy gourmet flavored coffee creamer when you can make it right in your own kitchen for half the cost?

It takes minutes to whisk up a batch of my rich and creamy pumpkin spice creamer. Chances are you already have most of these ingredients on hand.

My recipe makes about 2 & 1/2 cups of creamer. Keep the mixture refrigerated and it will last for about a week, depending on how much creamer you add to your coffee. Because this mixture is already sweetened, you shouldn’t have to add any other sweetener (hey, I just saved you more money!).

Give my recipe a try. If you like the flavor of pumpkin pie, I guarantee you’ll like this.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup sweetened condensed milk

• 1 cup milk

• 3 tablespoons pure pumpkin purée

• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

• 4 tablespoons maple syrup

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Place all of the ingredients in a small mixing bowl.

2. Whisk to combine.

3. Add a few spoonfuls to your favorite coffee, stir and ENJOY!
