This Healthy Vegan Pumpkin Spice Latte Recipe is amazingly delicious, dairy-free and absolutely guilt-free! Made with cashew milk, maple syrup, real pumpkin and of course pumpkin pie spice.
This pumpkin spice latte was made possible thanks to The NutraMilk, an incredible appliance that allows you to make nut milks and butters from scratch within minutes!
If you are a nut milk or nut butter freak like me, this appliance will fast become your favorite. If you are lactose-intolerant, don’t think twice, it’s what you were dreaming about!
The NutraMilk brings nut milk and nut butter making to a whole new level. This product is NEW on the market and absolutely unique, since there is no other appliance that makes nut milks and butters within minutes.
It’s super easy to use too! Just throw some nuts (or grains!), set a timer and press BUTTER, wait and enjoy the smoothest nut butter made from scratch with no additives, emulsifiers and preservatives. To make milk out of it, just add water and press MIX, dispense and enjoy. No soaking, no straining, no mess!
The best thing is that you can create any type of fresh alternative milk or butter in your own kitchen. Cashews, walnuts, almonds, peanuts, macadamia, hemp seeds, rice, oats, flax seeds, black sesame, you name it. Possibilities are truly endless.
Think about all the different kinds of drinks (and food!) you can create using these milks. Smoothies and smoothie bowls, vegan milkshakes, dips and spreads, soups and curry, baked goods (I will totally try to veganize my Vatrushka recipe!), tea and coffee…
Besides, you can use the pulp to make these lovely Almond Pulp Cookies for example.
I started with healthy vegan pumpkin spice late and I didn’t regret. It’s the perfect drink for the weather and for the upcoming holiday season! Just make it for your loved ones and enjoy the flavors of fall in your cup. This vegan pumpkin spice latte will warm you from inside out just as good as (or even better!) a dairy one!

How to Make Healthy Vegan Pumpkin Spice Latte
I decided to start my homemade nut milk production with cashews. Remember my vegan fettuccine Alfredo? I wish I had The NutraMilk when I made this recipe.
It takes about 8 minutes to make cashew milk from raw cashews. Add 1 cup raw cashews to The NutraMilk. Set the BUTTER cycle for 5 minutes until cashew butter is ready. Add 4 cups (or 1 liter) water and set the MIX cycle for 3 minutes. Dispense about 1 cup of cashew milk to use for the vegan pumpkin spice latte (two servings) and refrigerate the rest for up to 2 days.
You can use the rest of the milk to make this delicious Iced Matcha Latte.
Other ingredients for this vegan pumpkin spice latte include pumpkin purée, freshly brewed coffee, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, maple syrup and a pinch of salt.
Combine all ingredients (keeping 1/2 cup cashew milk for the topping) in a saucepan. Stir well and heat through over medium heat.
While the coffee mixture is heating, microwave the remaining 1/2 cup cashew milk in a large mixing bowl until it’s hot. Whip it with a hand mixer or a whisk until very foamy.
Pour the coffee mixture in tall glasses or mugs. Top with whipped cashew milk and sprinkle with cinnamon. Enjoy your vegan pumpkin spice latte made from scratch! For details check the recipe box below.
Holidays are around the corner, so if you are looking for perfect gifts for your loved ones (and you do, right?), get yourself The NutraMilk and give homemade nut butters or milks as gifts for the holidays! The appliance itself makes a perfect gift, especially for someone with food allergies. Here is the offer that will convince you if I haven’t yet:

Lois. O says
Ok this is definitely a must try for me since it contains two of my favorite things in the world: Cashews and no eggs!
Elena Szeliga says
Hi Lois, thank you! I’m a big cashew fan myself, so I know what you mean 😉
Donna says
I have been seeing these machines advertised everywhere lately and I think they are great. I totally can’t justify yet another device in the kitchen, but for someone making nut milks on a regular basis it would be just perfect. Love this Fall drink!!
Elena Szeliga says
Hi Donna, I know what you mean. I have no free space in my kitchen either! This nut maker is totally worth it if you are vegan and/or lactose-intolerant. Or a food blogger 🙂
Carrie Ditton says
I am going to have to try this. If it looks even half as good as your photos then it’s bound to be awesome!
Elena Szeliga says
Thank you so much Carrie! I really appreciate it 🙂
Christine says
I absolutely love cashew in coffee! It’s SO creamy and delicious. Would love to try your recipe! Love that it’s vegan, too 😉
Elena Szeliga says
Thank you Christine! I know right? Cashews are so good in coffee!
Helene says
Just the way I like my pumpkin spice latte. Your pictures are truly inspiring Elena, I feel like running to the kitchen to make me a hot cup full (with the foam of course!)
Elena Szeliga says
Thank you so much Helene! It’s a real life saver when it’s chilly outside!
dixya @food, pleasure, and health says
i dont make nut milk as much at home but this sounds like a great tool…and this latte looks absolutely delicious.
Elena Szeliga says
I know what you mean Dixya! I wasn’t making nearly as much nut milk as I do now before I got the nut maker. Just because it makes the job so easy! And nut milk is so healthy and delicious, so it’s a win-win 🙂
Veena Azmanov says
I love that you used cashews instead of almonds. I love almonds but must prefer cashews. This sounds so delicious. Perfect for this weather.
Elena Szeliga says
Thank you Veena! I like almonds too, but I think cashews are good for a change! I love the mild flavor they give to the milk.
Dominique | Perchance to Cook says
I love the use of cashews here! Makes for a wonderful dairyfree creamy latte option. I love the pumpkin seasoning here, especially this time of year. YUM
Elena Szeliga says
I love cashew milk too and I was very surprised to find out that whipped cashew milk can be so creamy! Thank you Dominique!
