I'm fully team homemade lattes right now. Wrapped up in a blanket with this maple cinnamon latte, skipping the coffee shop line, and letting my kitchen smell like fall-meets-café, no complaints at all.

Equipment

Milk frothing:
You can froth milk using a handheld milk frother, a steam wand on an espresso machine, or by heating the milk and shaking it in a tightly sealed jar. Whole milk creates the creamiest foam, but other milks work well with a little extra shaking or frothing.

Espresso / coffee:
This latte works with espresso brewed from a Nespresso machine or any espresso maker. If you don't have espresso, use strong brewed coffee or instant coffee mixed with hot water for a similar strength.

Ingredients

2-3 teaspoons maple syrup
½ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 shot espresso
⅔ cup (150 ml) whole milk or milk of choice

Instructions

Add maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon to a mug and stir to combine.
Pour in a shot of espresso (or strong coffee) and mix until the cinnamon is evenly dissolved.
Froth the warm milk until foamy, then pour it over the coffee, spooning foam on top.
Finish with a light drizzle of maple syrup, a pinch of cinnamon, and a cinnamon stick if desired.

Notes

For a stronger coffee flavor, use 2 shots of espresso.
Whole milk gives the creamiest foam, but oat or almond milk work well too.
Iced version: Add maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon to a glass and stir to dissolve. Fill the glass with ice, pour over the espresso, then top with (⅔-¾ cup) 150-180ml cold-foamed milk. Stir gently and serve.
Topping ideas: Finish with a drizzle of maple syrup, a light dusting of cinnamon or cinnamon sugar, a spoon of milk foam, or whipped cream.
