Oh, the holiday season is coming… and that means all things cinnamon, pumpkin and spice. That brings me to glorious low FODMAP pumpkin spiced lattes.

Get your coffee hit with little hints of pumpkin, a sprinkle of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and a generous topping of cream. It’s like a fall party in your mouth that is perfect for the holiday season or when you just want to cosy on the couch with a snuggly drink.

You might be wondering what the deal is with coffee when you have a grumpy gut? Coffee is low FODMAP but the caffeine in it can trigger symptoms for some people. If that’s you then you can turn this into a caffeine free latte by leaving out the coffee.

Vegan or dairy free option option: Instead of topping with whipped dairy cream try stirring through a few spoonfuls of whipped coconut cream instead for a decadent latte. Also choose a plant based milk alternative.

FODMAP note: Yip that’s right ladies and gents, whipped cream is low FODMAP and can be enjoyed in ½ cup serves. That means it’s completely okay to use a couple of spoonfuls to make a fluffy latte topping.

How to make pumpkin puree: Take 125 g (4.4 oz) of Japanese Pumpkin/Kabocha Squash/Buttercup pumpkin and chop it into small cubes. Steam in the microwave with a couple of tablespoons of water for 4 minutes on high until soft, then puree with 2 to 3 tablespoons of water until silky smooth. This will make ½ cup of pumpkin puree.

Method

  1. Make the pumpkin puree if needed. Peel, deseed and dice the pumpkin into small cubes. Steam in microwave for 4 minutes until soft. Then puree with a couple of tablespoons of water until silky smooth.
  2. Place the milk into a small saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Whisk in the puree, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, all spice, cloves, black pepper, and maple syrup. It’s normal for the milk and puree to separate a little bit so whisk as needed to keep it smooth.
  3. Stir through the coffee (if using) and vanilla. Taste and add another splash of maple syrup if needed.
  4. Serve as is or top with whipped cream or stir through some whipped coconut cream for a vegan option.
  5. You can also make this in bulk and keep in the fridge for up to 1 week. The mixture will separate as it cools so just whisk it back together as you heat it on the stovetop.
