golden apple crisp latte________________________A three-way cross between a coffee beverage, golden milk, and baked apple crisp. Who knew that was possible? I did. Which is why I created it.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup canned full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup milk of choice (oat, almond, cow, etc.)
- 1/4 cup apple butter, homemade or store bought
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 1 cup strong-brewed coffee
- whipped cream and Simple Maple Spice Granola (recipe below), to serve
simple maple spice granola
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup pepitas
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/4 tsp cloves
- pinch nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Toss the oats and pepitas with maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, clove, and nutmeg. Spread in an even layer on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 15-20 minutes, tossing every 5 minutes. Watch very closely to prevent burning. Let cool on the counter - the granola will continue to crisp.
- In a small saucepan, heat coconut milk, other milk of choice, apple butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and turmeric to a gentle simmer. Remove from heat and whisk briskly, or use a handheld frother, until foamy.
- Divide coffee into two mugs, then pour the milk mixture overtop. Finish with whipped cream and a generous sprinkle of granola.
