    Why You'll Love This Recipe

    Homemade coffee syrups are currently my favorite thing to make. I am a huge coffee fan and always look for ideas to jazz up my cup of joe. Every year, in October, I make my pumpkin spice coffee creamer to kick of the season. This year, I am enjoying this Pumpkin Syrup. It's made with simple, real ingredients in under 15 minutes!

    The combination of pumpkin puree and warm spices like cinnamon, cloves and ginger make this syrup rich in flavor, reminiscent of your favorite pumpkin pie. Nothing better to start the day with than a steaming cup of creamy coffee with spices of the season!

    Ingredients:

    Ingredients for pumpkin syrup set on a gray background.
    • water: necessary to make the syrup base;
    • sugars: I used equal amounts of brown sugar and granulated sugar;
    • pumpkin: I used a 100% pumpkin puree, not pie filling; this ingredient is optional
    • pumpkin pie spice: I used my homemade spice mix;
    • vanilla extract: for the sweet vanilla flavor.

    How to make pumpkin syrup for coffee?

    • Combine water and both sugars in a saucepan.
    • Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 to 7 minutes.
    • Add vanilla, spices and pumpkin puree. Whisk well and simmer for 5 minutes.
    • Remove from heat and let cool completely.
    • Transfer into a bottle and store in the fridge.

    • drizzle over pancakes or waffles,
    • add to overnight oatmeal,
    • use in layer cakes or drizzle over frosted cupcakes,
    • serve on baked apples,

    Not a fan of coffee? Add a few tablespoons to warm milk (any kind) and enjoy this sweet pumpkin steamer. It's a favorite with kids too!

    Recipe FAQs:

    How to store it?

    This syrup contains pumpkin puree so it is best stored in the fridge. It will last for up to 10 to 12 days. If you skip the pumpkin, it can last up to 2 weeks, on the counter.

    Can I skip pumpkin puree in this recipe?

    Absolutely! It is optional to add the pumpkin. The marjority of flavor comes from the spice mix and brown sugar, so feel free to skip the puree!

    Can I use sugar substitutes?

    To make this syrup sugar-free, try monkfruit sweetener or maple syrup. It will add even more flavor!
