Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots Espresso
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons Granulated sugar
- 1.5 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
Instructions
Start by brewing 2 shots of fresh espresso and set it aside to cool slightly while preparing the other components.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Add the butter and use a fork or your fingers to mix until the texture resembles a crumbly topping. Set aside.
In a small saucepan or a milk frother, heat the whole milk until steaming but not boiling. If using a frother, froth the milk until it reaches your desired foam consistency. If using a saucepan, whisk vigorously to create foam.
To assemble the cappuccino, pour the brewed espresso into a cappuccino cup or mug.
Add the brown sugar and vanilla extract to the espresso and stir until dissolved.
Slowly pour the steamed milk into the cup, holding back the foam with a spoon. Then, gently spoon the foam on top to create a luxurious layer.
Sprinkle the prepared crumb topping evenly over the foam layer for a coffee cake-inspired finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, sweet, and spiced flavors of this Brown Sugar Coffee Cake Cappuccino.
