Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer
This pumpkin creamer is one of my favorite ways to add fall flavor to a regular cup of coffee.
It’s creamy, lightly spiced, and has the perfect amount of sweetness from the sweetened condensed milk.
My recipe is super simple, and you probably have everything you need in your kitchen already.
A small saucepan and a whisk are about all the tools you’ll need. Once you make it from scratch, you may never use store-bought again!
How to Make Pumpkin Spice Creamer
Here’s a quick overview showing how I make this homemade creamer. The full recipe with ingredient amounts is further down the page.
Start by adding a small portion of the heavy cream to a saucepan with the pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
Warm it over low heat while whisking until everything looks smooth and combined. You don’t want it to boil. Just heat it enough to blend the flavors.
Take the pan off the stove and whisk in the rest of the heavy cream and the sweetened condensed milk. Once it’s all mixed together, let it cool a bit before pouring it into a jar or bottle.
Give the creamer a gentle shake before each use, and add it to your favorite hot or iced coffee. It’s especially good in a homemade pumpkin spice latte.
Quick Tips
- Use pure pumpkin purée, not pumpkin pie filling.
- If you prefer a stronger pumpkin flavor, add an extra teaspoon of pumpkin purée.
- Want more spice? Stir in a little extra pumpkin pie spice.
- Try frothing it with a handheld frother for that coffee shop-style foam.
Can I make this creamer dairy-free?
Yes! Use full-fat coconut milk instead of heavy cream and your favorite non-dairy sweetened condensed milk (there are several oat and coconut versions available now). The texture will be a little thinner, but that’s the best combo for a creamy texture.
Can I use this coffee creamer in iced coffee?
Absolutely. It blends great with both hot and iced drinks. Just give it a good shake first since the pumpkin purée tends to settle a little at the bottom.
How can I adjust the sweetness?
Start with less sweetened condensed milk and add more as needed.
How to Store Leftovers
Keep leftover creamer in a sealed jar or airtight bottle in the refrigerator. It stays fresh for about a week assuming the dairy doesn’t expire.
Shake well before using since the spice and pumpkin can settle a bit at the bottom.

Hi, I’m Kimberly Vargo! Comfort food is at the heart of everything I make like easy dinners and sides to desserts, cocktails, and condiments. A lot of my inspiration comes from old family recipes, personal favorites, and vintage cookbooks.
Currently drinking this creamer in my coffee — ohmygosh. The creamer by itself tastes like pumpkin ice cream. This is insane. I seriously sipped the creamer before remembering I was drinking creamer and should really add it to my coffee. This is perfect.
Thank you, Sari! We so thrilled you came back to comment and rate the recipe. Kim has been drinking pumpkin spice lattes for years, but they’re so expensive. So, a few years ago, I started making this creamer for her to save money. Also, you can make it whenever you get the craving. We hope you have a lovely weekend 🙂
wow. This does look delicious. I’ve never tasted pumpkin latte but looking at the pictures am surely going to try this one.Thanks for sharing.
What a perfectly fall looking drink!! The pictures are beautiful! I’m excited to try this one! Printing now!
Oh my daughter has been trying to replicate Pumpkin Spiced Latte, I will definitely make some with her when she comes in town. She will be delighted!
Yummy! My sister and her kids love pumpkin spice lattes. Me, not so much. So, now I can wow them this weekend when they come to my house for brunch!! I can’t wait to make this for them!!
If you are a sweet coffee lover you have to try Vietnamese egg coffee which is a Hanoi tradition where my daughter lives. You whip an egg yolk and sweetened condensed milk into a meringue and drizzle over express to. So good!
