When the weather starts to turn cold (or because you’re just looking for a cozy holiday drink), that’s when it’s time to start digging into my repertoire of latte recipes. Today I’ll be sharing a recipe that will show you how to make the best keto pumpkin spice latte. Here’s how to make it.
How to Make a Keto Pumpkin Spice Latte

Can I Make Whipped Cream Without a Blender or Food Processor?
When it comes to making my own whipped cream, I can’t deny that using a blender or a food processor makes the job way easier. With that being said, that doesn’t mean either appliance is required whatsoever in order to make the most perfect whipped cream.
There are two main ways that I like to make whipped cream without having to use a blender or food processor.
You can opt to simply use a whisk and whisk together the whipped cream by hand, which works great. However, my preferred method is to use a mason jar.
All you’ll have to do is fill up the jar halfway with cold heavy cream and then tightly seal the lid. Shake the cream vigorously for about 2-3 minutes and then prepare to be blown away by how soft your whipped cream turns out.
Can I Make an Iced Version of This Keto Pumpkin Spice Latte?
If you prefer your lattes cold instead of hot, then you’re in luck with this recipe, it’s super easy to modify it in order to make an iced pumpkin spice latte instead.
Just follow the recipe as you usually would but before you top your latte with the homemade whipped cream, add in a few ice cubes and give the latte a quick whisk. Then simply add the whipped cream and extra pumpkin spice as you normally would and enjoy.
