Ingredients
- ¾ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup (2 shots) espresso or strongly brewed coffee cooled
- 3 tablespoon pumpkin spice sauce (store-bought or with recipe below)
- ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum (optional for thickening Frappuccino- can substitute with cornstarch, but use a little bit more)
- ¾ cup ice
- Pumpkin pie spice for topping
Pumpkin Spice Sauce
- 1 14-oz can fat-free sweetened condensed milk (use regular if you can't find fat-free)
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add milk, espresso/coffee, pumpkin pie sauce, xanthan gum (or corn starch), and ice to blender and process until smooth and frothy.
- Pour Frappuccino into cup and top with whipped cream and pumpkin pie spice.
Pumpkin Pie Sauce
- Put condensed milk in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, along with pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
- Stir together and heat for about 5 minutes, until it's just starting to bubble.
- Remove it from the heat and stir in vanilla extract.
- Pour the pumpkin spice sauce into a heat-proof jar or bowl and place in the fridge to cool.
Notes
- To make the Creme (sans coffee) version of the Frappuccino, replace the ¼ cup espresso with an additional ¼ cup of milk (or half and half for a richer drink).
- Homemade pumpkin spice sauce should keep fresh for about a week when stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
