Steps
Chill your milk, puree and jar or frother beforehand. Cold ingredients whip up into a thicker foam than room temperature ones, so start with everything straight from the fridge.
Add half a cup (120 ml) of cold milk to your jar. Stir in one scoop (about 30 g) of protein powder until no dry clumps are left.
Spoon in one tablespoon of pumpkin puree, a quarter teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice, one teaspoon of maple syrup and a small pinch of salt.
Method one, electric frother: lower the whisk into the jar and run it for 20 to 30 seconds, until the foam is thick and has roughly doubled in volume.
Method two, mason jar: screw the lid on tight and shake hard for 30 to 45 seconds. Stop when the liquid turns into a thick, pourable foam.
Pour your coffee into a mug, leaving an inch of space at the top. Spoon the foam over the surface so it sits in a thick layer.
Dust the top with a little extra pumpkin pie spice and serve straight away, before the foam starts to settle.
Tips and common mistakes
Skim or 2 percent dairy milk foams best, while oat milk gives a creamier result.
Add the spice after frothing if you want a smoother texture, since ground spice can make the foam grainy.
If the foam comes out too thin, add another half scoop of protein powder or use less milk next time.
Fill the jar no more than halfway so the foam has room to expand when you shake it.
Questions
Can I make this cold foam in a blender?
Yes. Blend the same ingredients on high for about 20 seconds. Use a small blender jar so the mixture actually aerates instead of just spinning.
Can I leave out the protein powder?
You can, but the foam will be thinner and less stable. Replace it with a tablespoon of powdered milk or a little extra pumpkin puree to keep some body.
How long does pumpkin cold foam keep?
It is best used right away. Stored covered in the fridge, it holds for about a day, but you will need to froth or shake it again before serving.
