It’s officially fall time and you know what that means, Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back in season! Save yourself some money (and calories) by making your own version at home! It’s not only easy, it contains a few, wholesome ingredients, many of which you may already have on hand!
I use this cheap Milk Frother
It’s quick to make and so delicious. The perfect drink to enjoy on a brisk, autumn day!
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Have a great weekend, friends!
You may have a bit of pumpkin puree leftover, so here are some recipe ideas to use it up!
Glazed Pumpkin Crumb Muffins
Chai Spiced Pumpkin Cookies
Pumpkin Barbecue Meatballs

October 12, 2015 at 7:25 pmOkay so I saw this photo and absolutely could not resist commenting! Would you believe me if I told you I’ve never had a pumpkin spice latte? I can’t seem to justify the cost but this is such a great substitute and a more delicious one at that! I will absolutely be trying it out this season! x Natalie http://www.thegirlwithbangs.com
