Print Recipe

A simple and adaptable pumpkin spice syrup recipe perfect for cozy lattes, pancakes, and more, with classic and sugar-free options.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup water (240 ml)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (200 g) or 1 cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener for sugar-free version
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (fresh or canned; unsweetened)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine 1 cup (240 ml) water, 1 cup (200 g) sugar or chosen sweetener, and 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree in a saucepan. Whisk until sugar starts dissolving over medium heat, about 3 minutes.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon cloves, and ¼ teaspoon ginger. Stir continuously for about 2 minutes to let spices bloom.
  3. Lower heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, whisking occasionally until syrup thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Add water if too thick.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Strain syrup through a fine mesh strainer into a heatproof container to remove pumpkin bits. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  6. Store syrup in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Shake well before each use.

Notes

Use fresh-ground spices for best aroma. Straining creates a smooth syrup but can be skipped for rustic texture. Adjust sweetness or spice by adding more water or pumpkin puree after cooling. Refrigerate and shake before use. Can be microwaved carefully as a quicker alternative.
