Looking for a perfect DIY pumpkin creamer that doesn't take much? You're going to love this recipe! I swear it's better than the bottles or standing in line.

What started as a mad dash to make creamer one morning for my black coffee turned into a pumpkin spice creamer recipe I enjoy making over and over again.
This pumpkin spice creamer has everything from real pumpkin to spices, flavor, sweetness, and creaminess. It's not as sweet as the storebought, but it also doesn't leave that weird aftertaste in your mouth either (or maybe that's just me?)
I'm a momma that can't live without coffee. If I go too long without it I get caffeine withdrawal migraines, so having this recipe handy is perfect for when I forget to pick up a bottle of creamer at the store.

🥘 Ingredients
Milk- You will need some milk or half and half to make this creamer. While low fat milks can be used, whole fat or higher fat milk is better at cutting the bitterness in coffee.
Sweetened condensed milk- For added sweetness, a can of condensed milk works perfectly and blends into the creamer easier.
Pumpkin puree- Use some fresh pumpkin puree for a delicious taste of Fall.
Vanilla Extract- A flavor enhancer.
Maple Syrup- Add in some maple syrup for added flavor and sweetness.
Pumpkin Pie Spice- For that warm spice flavor you know and expect, you'll want to add in some pumpkin pie spice.

🍴 Recipe Tips
This DIY coffee creamer recipe is so simple and easy you really don't need to know much else. The heating of the creamer simply makes the ingredients dissolve and mix together more smoothly. It doesn't need to be warmed.
If you allow your coffee to rest for too long (about as long as it takes to get cold) then you may notice some of the contents settling at the bottom of your cup. Just stir it back in and you'll be fine.
💭 FAQs

Yes, almond milk or other dairy free milk would be great in this recipe.
