Ingredients you’ll need

Everything you need to make this smooth, pumpkin pie spiced creamer:

Whole milk – The base for a balanced, creamy consistency
Heavy cream – Adds a rich, velvety texture
Pure maple syrup – Sweetens naturally with caramel undertones
Pumpkin pie spice – Warm, aromatic blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and more
Vanilla extract – Adds soft sweetness and depth of flavor

Bolder Flavor: Increase pumpkin pie spice to 2½–3 tsp for a stronger taste.

How to make pumpkin spice creamer without pumpkin puree

Pumpkin spice creamer ingredients in saucepan.

Step 1: In a small saucepan, add the heavy cream, whole milk, pumpkin pie spice, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.

Step 2: Heat gently over medium-low, whisking often until steaming (no boiling or simmering). Reduce to low and warm 2 minutes to infuse the spices.

Samantha’s recipe tips

Fresh spices make the difference – Old pumpkin pie spice loses its aroma and flavor.
Whisk frequently – Keeps the spices evenly mixed and prevents clumping. Also prevents the milk from overheating.
Taste before storing – Adjust spice or sweetness before bottling.
