Pumpkin Spice Latte

[1 SP per cup] Its fall folks, so let us jump on board the Pumpkin train. Everywhere I look, I see signs for Pumpkin Spice Lattes and I have to say that I love them. The problem with this is that a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Second Cup or Starbucks (even using Skim Milk) is over 10 SP per cup! I know I can't afford that amount of points on a coffee twice a day. This recipe is the solution to this problem!

Information

  • Makes: 1 serving
  • Source: Hungry Girl
  • Prep: 5 min     Cook: 5 min

Ingredients

2 Tbsp Vanilla Flavoured High Protein powder 1 SP
1 tsp Truvia Calorie-Free Sweetener 0 SP
2 tsp regular instant coffee powder 0 SP
¼ tsp pumpkin pie spice, or more for topping 0 SP
2 Tbsp pumpkin puree, canned 0 SP
¾ cup water 0 SP
½ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk 0 SP
1 Tbsp Cool Whip 95% fat-free whipped topping 0 SP

Instructions

  1. Place protein powder, sweetener, coffee granules, and pumpkin pie spice in a tall microwave-safe mug or glass. Add 3/4 cup water, and mix well. Microwave for 45 seconds, or until hot.
  2. Stir until protein powder and coffee granules have dissolved. Add canned pumpkin, and stir until uniform.
  3. Add almond milk, and mix well. Microwave for another 45 seconds, or until hot.

Notes

You could make a cup of coffee instead of using the instant coffee powder. Just keep the measurement correct; only ¾ cup.
