The beauty of pumpkin spice syrup lies in its simplicity. Made with just a handful of ingredients, including pure maple syrup, pumpkin puree, and a blend of spices, it’s easy to make at home. The pumpkin adds a creamy, slightly sweet base, while the warm spices create that signature fall flavor that we all crave during the cooler months. The combination of sweet and spicy flavors makes it an incredibly versatile syrup that can be used in a variety of ways.
Pumpkin Spice Syrup can be added to your favorite coffee or tea for a homemade pumpkin spice latte. Simply stir a spoonful into hot milk or coffee, and you have a café-style drink in minutes.

The syrup also pairs wonderfully with baked goods like muffins, scones, or cinnamon rolls, enhancing the flavor with that cozy, spiced sweetness.
What makes this syrup even more special is how easy it is to customize. You can adjust the level of sweetness to your taste by adding more or less maple syrup. If you prefer a stronger spice flavor, feel free to add a pinch of extra cinnamon or nutmeg. A touch of vanilla or caramel can also be added for added depth.
Pumpkin Spice Syrup is the perfect way to celebrate the flavors of fall all season long. Whether you use it in your drinks, drizzle it over breakfast, or add it to your favorite fall recipes, this syrup brings the warmth and comfort of autumn to your kitchen.

This syrup is AMAZING! I added it to my coffee and it’s like fall in a cup. Definitely making this again!
Really enjoyed it! But I used fresh pumpkin and added a bit more spice! Yum!!
Why do people put pumpkin in everything now? It’s kinda gross. Syrup should be sweet, not savory. No thanks.
I tried it but it turned out super thick and kinda weird. Did I do something wrong?
Good recipe but it needs more sugar…like who is they kidding with 1 cup only. Sweet sweet sweet!
I totally agree! I added another half cup of sugar and it was perfect. Sweetness level was off the charts! đźŤ
