This is the real thing, no artificial ingredients. Pumpkin, spice and cream, all blended together and “yummified”.
As a young adult I actually LOVED non dairy creamer. I have no idea why, but I thought it was so good, no half aand half for me. As I have gotten older and eat mostly non processed foods I have really developed a distaste for it. So for me it is all about 1/2 and 1/2 or milk in my coffee and tea.
I’m sure you don’t know this (just kidding) but anything Pumpkin Spice is all the rage right now. So, I decided to see if I could put together a natural Homemade Pumpkin Spice Creamer recipe. And I really think it works. It tasted great and it was all real.
What could be better?
For this recipe you are also going to need a coffee filter to make a little sachet for the spices. My guess (but I have not tried it) is that if you had a spicy herbal tea you probably could use a bag of that instead.
You will also need to strain it prior to using. I use a paint strainer bag. But you can also use nut bag, clean nylons or a t-shirt to remove the pumpkin pulp.
