This Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal Latte is just what you need on a cozy fall morning. Your favorite things in one mug… pumpkin, oats, espresso and steamed milk! Grab a spoon.
Autumn is here, and nothing says cozy like a warm, spiced latte at breakfast. I’ve been swapping my iced coffees for steaming mugs lately, and this Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal Latte hits all the right notes: creamy oats, rich pumpkin, espresso, and a touch of steamed milk. It’s a breakfast-and-coffee hybrid that’s simple to make and wonderfully satisfying.
I love having an espresso machine at home so I can pull fresh shots whenever the craving hits. I often choose decaf in the afternoons so I can enjoy the flavor without the extra caffeine. If you have a Nespresso or another espresso maker, this recipe comes together quickly and tastes café-worthy.
One of my favorite ways to enjoy oatmeal is to combine it with coffee. Pouring espresso and steamed milk over warm, pumpkin-spiced oats creates a comforting bowl that feels indulgent but still wholesome. Try this fusion for a slow, spoonable breakfast that doubles as your morning pick-me-up.
If you haven’t tried pouring your latte over oatmeal, I encourage you to give it a go. The texture is creamy and comforting, and the pumpkin spice flavor makes it perfect for chilly mornings. Once you try it, it might become your new autumn ritual.

Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 shots espresso (use decaf if preferred)
- 1/2 cup steamed milk
- Maple syrup, to taste
Instructions
- Combine the oats and water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5–8 minutes until the oats absorb the liquid and reach a slightly thicker texture.
- Divide the oatmeal between two mugs. Add one shot of espresso to each mug, then top with steamed milk.
- Finish with a drizzle of maple syrup to taste and serve immediately.
- Notes: An espresso machine and milk frother make this quick and easy; you can also use strong brewed coffee and warmed milk if needed.
