Vegan Pumpkin Spice Cold Foam

Vegan pumpkin spice cold foam tops a tall glass of iced coffee in this delicious homemade pumpkin cold foam recipe. Made with just 5 ingredients this non-dairy pumpkin cold foam is the perfect addition to your fall coffee line up!

I noticed when coffee crossed over the $5 threshold. Then after going dairy-free I came to terms with the additional charge for non-dairy milk. Fine. But after a few years in a postpartum fog I have recently emerged to discover buying a coffee costs $9?!?

Is this inflation? Was it always this expensive and I just turned a blind eye? Or did I just hit the age when spending this much on coffee is not worth it anymore? All of this to say, I am better served making my own coffee at home.

Why We Love This Pumpkin Spice Cold Foam

As if the crisp air and warm cozy spices are not reason enough to live the pumpkin spice season, here are some reasons this pumpkin spice cold foam make my daily cup of coffee better.

• No sticker shock. I can whip up around 5 servings of this pumpkin cold foam for the price of one from the coffee shop.
• Makes enough for the week! Simply mix and enjoy with your coffee all week long.
• Warm cozy fall flavors without any of the dairy. Vegan, dairy-free, and filled with fresh pumpkin flavors.

Vegan Changes to Pumpkin Spice Cold Foam

Cold foam is essentially heavy cream mixed with milk so the base of this vegan pumpkin cold foam has some major changes to note.

• Plant-based cream. In place of heavy whipping cream I used a vegan plant cream.
• Non-dairy milk. To cut the thickness a bit I used non-dairy milk. I have used both oat milk and almond milk in this recipe.
• Omit sweetened condensed milks. Many of the recipes out there for cold foam used sweetened condensed milk. I replaced it with maple syrup for sweetness because it’s more cost effective than vegan sweetened condensed milk and lasts longer after opening.

How to Make Pumpkin Cold Foam

Ingredients You’ll Need

• Plant-Based Heavy Cream– Used as the base of the cold foam, the plant cream gets thick and frothy as you shake it up.
• Non-Dairy Milk– Almond milk and oat milk both work well in this recipe.
• Maple Syrup– For a hint of sweetness.
• Pumpkin Puree– Not pumpkin pie filling, simply 100% pumpkin will do.
• Pumpkin Pie Spice– For all the cozy fall flavors.

Step-by-Step Directions for Vegan Pumpkin Cold Foam

• In a tall mason jar, add plant cream, non-dairy milk, maple syrup, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spice.
• Mix with a small whisk to get all of the ingredients added smoothly.
• Next place the lid on the mason jar and shake until frothy.

• For additional froth, pour out 1/2 cup of the cold foam into a cup.
• Using a hand held frother, froth the pumpkin spice cold foam until thick and frothy.
• Pour or scoop over an 8 ounce glass of iced coffee and enjoy!
