Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond milk
- 0.5 cup Espresso or strong brewed coffee
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Almond extract (optional)
- 1 teaspoons Stevia or erythritol sweetener
Instructions
Brew a strong cup of coffee or prepare espresso. You will need approximately half a cup for one serving.
In a small saucepan, heat the almond milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Use a thermometer to ensure it does not exceed 150°F (65°C).
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sweetener. If using, also stir in the almond extract for an extra almond flavor.
Using a milk frother or an immersion blender, froth the almond milk until it becomes creamy and forms bubbles. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Pour the hot espresso or strong coffee into a cup.
Gently pour the frothed almond milk over the espresso, using a spoon to hold back the froth. Once most of the milk is in the cup, spoon the remaining froth on top.
Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top for additional flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sugar-free almond cappuccino!
