Homemade Maple Pumpkin Coffee Creamer

Nothing beats a cozy cup of coffee on a fall morning, but why pay $6 for it, when you only need 10 minutes and a few simple ingredients to make this easy, delicious, and much-better-for-you maple pumpkin coffee creamer for all your cozy coffee needs.

There’s simply nothing like a cozy cup of coffee on a crisp fall morning.

As long as it’s not ruined by spending $6 at the coffee shop for it.

Why bother with that when you can easily make it at home for a fraction of the price? Plus, you can make it with whole ingredients and none of the junky additives and sweeteners.

For most of my fall morning coffee moments, I make my bone broth pumpkin spice latte. But if you’re looking for a quick and healthy homemade alternative to store-bought pumpkin spice creamer for every day, this is it.

This stuff is good. Like, drink it on its own kind of good. Like, you won’t miss the artificial store-bought kind of stuff good.

It’s so good it’ll have you trying to find ways to use it in more than just your coffee (for which I’ve created a list down below). 

So here’s to endless cozy coffee morning moments on the horizon thanks to this irresistible maple pumpkin coffee creamer. Cheers!

why you’ll love this maple pumpkin coffee creamer

• You’ll be surprised to find how easy it is to make a pumpkin spice coffee creamer at home without any artificial flavoring, preservatives, or sweeteners while still getting all the wonderful flavors of all that you love so much.
• Speaking of sweeteners, this creamer contains no processed sugar – all of its sweetness and irresistible flavor comes from pure maple syrup, which is rich in antioxidants and essential minerals like manganese.

• Your wallet will thank you for not buying another $6 drink from the coffee shop for the rest of the season.

ingredients for maple pumpkin coffee creamer

• milk  – You want a thick, rich milk for your creamer so I recommend either half-and-half, whole milk, or a rich dairy-free milk alternative. Some of my favorites are coconut, macadamia, or cashew milk.
• pumpkin purée  – You can most definitely roast and purée pumpkins for this, but if you’re using canned pumpkin purée, just make sure that it’s 100% pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling.
• maple syrup  – There’s no need for artificial flavoring or sweeteners when using real maple syrup. Make sure it’s 100% pure grade A maple syrup – that should be the only ingredient listed. Use as much or as little as you like based on how sweet you like your creamer. 
• vanilla extract  – It’s the secret ingredient that makes this creamer taste so decadent without being overly sweet. Again, make sure it’s pure vanilla extract. We only want the good stuff here.
• pumpkin pie spice  – you most definitely can use a store-bought spice blend or check out the notes in the recipe card for how to make your own pumpkin spice blend if you don’t have any on hand.
• sea salt  – You always need a little salt to balance out all the flavors and sweetness.
