Apple Pie Spice Latte for the chilly fall mornings or afternoons. So much better because made in your own kitchen!

Homemade Apple Pie Spice Latte

There are many things I look forward to this fall season: apples, pumpkins, brown, red and orange leaves on the lawn, chilly mornings, plaid throws, TV shows, seasonal Yankee Candles and so much more.

Chilly mornings require a good coffee. Better yet, a latte. Like this Apple Pie Spice Latte.

I will take apples before pumpkins any day. I just love love love them! I have a trip planned to our local orchard for apple picking and I think I am more excited than my kids! 🙂 I could have baskets and baskets of apples filling my kitchen and I would be totally happy!

Homemade latte with apple pie spice flavor

I had this idea of Apple Pie Spice Latte in my head, since all the latte recipes started flowing all over Pinterest and appearing on my favorite food blogs. And since Pumpkin Spice Latte has been done and shared already, I thought that this one could be the next great latte idea. I hope you will agree!

The syrup that is the base for this latte comes from the RecipeGirl cookbook. It's a cider syrup for Lori's Apple-Bacon Waffles (which by the way sound absolutely amazing and I need to make them soon!). I loved the idea of a homemade syrup I could use when I am out of the maple kind and I saved the recipe. Turns out it's perfect for this latte! And so incredibly easy to make!

    I tried this recipe last fall and I forgot to rate it. I just made some more of the syrup to celebrate the first day of fall tomorrow, but here I am cheating and sneaking a cup of decaf a night early!
    It's so good, everything I could possibly want out of an apple pie coffee drink!

    I'm soooo glad I found your website; I have made the pumpkin pie and the apple pie spice lattes this morning for my group's brunch and they were both a massive hit! I'm thankful for finding a site that has homemade alternatives to the chemical-laden commercial syrups. Thank you so much!

    Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. This is SUCH a cool idea! I'm so stuck on hot chocolate (homemade) as my hot winter breakfast beverage of choice and i need to break out of my rut. Can't think of a better way- these look AWESOME! Perfect for a brunch party, too!

    Oh my gosh, Anna, I'm totally with you! Give me apples any day. So happy to see an apple spice latte, I'm feeling a little sensory overload from all the pumpkin recipes out there... not that I'm not a complete hypocrite, I will be posting a couple pumpkin recipes in the not-so-distant future 😉 Love this idea; can't wait to give it a try!

    Hi there! I guess I should have included it in the recipe... The recipe makes just slightly more than 1 cup of syrup. And like I said in the notes, you can use it on pancakes or waffles. It's fabulous!

    Anna, you *have* to stop!!! My yoga pants feel tighter just looking at your recipes, but I can't wait to try this. I am definitely more of an apple person than a pumpkin person so this looks like an excellent fall treat!
