This cozy and energizing Pumpkin Spice Protein Coffee is packed with seasonal flavor and over 20g of protein. It’s the perfect morning pick-me-up without the sugar crash of store-bought PSLs.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup freshly brewed strong coffee (or cold brew concentrate)
  • 1 scoop (about 25g) vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (plus extra for garnish)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 cup milk of choice (oat, almond, dairy, etc.)
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon MCT oil or coconut oil
  • Ice cubes (for iced version)

Instructions

  1. Brew your coffee or prepare cold brew concentrate. For a rich flavor, use a French press or espresso.
  2. In a blender or with a handheld frother, combine hot coffee, protein powder, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, vanilla, and sweetener. Blend 20–30 seconds until smooth.
  3. Add milk and blend briefly to incorporate. If serving cold, let cool slightly and pour over ice. If hot, warm the milk before blending.
  4. Pour into your mug or insulated cup. Garnish with extra pumpkin pie spice or whipped cream if desired.
  5. Enjoy immediately, or refrigerate up to 2 days. Shake or stir before drinking.

Notes

Use plant-based protein for a vegan option. Adjust sweetness and spice to taste. For a keto version, use monk fruit sweetener and MCT oil. Make a pumpkin spice concentrate for quick meal prep throughout the week.
