Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups water
  • 1 cup golden monk fruit or allulose (substitute brown or coconut sugar if desired)
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Spices

  • 23 tsp pumpkin pie spice blend (divided: 2 tsp initially, 1 tsp after)

Additional Flavorings

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp xanthan gum (optional, for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Combine and Dissolve the Main Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 3/4 cups water, 1 cup golden monk fruit or allulose, 1 cup canned pumpkin puree, 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice blend, and 1/4 tsp salt. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously for 5-7 minutes until the sweetener is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Scrape the sides and bottom to prevent sticking, ensuring a nice texture.
  2. Incorporate Additional Spices: Add the remaining 1 teaspoon (or to taste) pumpkin pie spice blend to the smooth mixture. Stir thoroughly until the spices are fully mixed in and no lumps remain.
  3. Thicken with Xanthan Gum (Optional): Sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum evenly across the surface while whisking rapidly to avoid clumps. This step is optional but helps achieve a pourable, thicker syrup consistency.
  4. Simmer to Develop Flavors: Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer gently for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and to allow flavors to meld and deepen. This also thickens the syrup slightly.
  5. Add Vanilla Extract: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract until fully incorporated. Adding vanilla at the end preserves its bright fragrance and contributes to the syrup’s flavor complexity.
  6. Cool and Store the Pumpkin Spice Syrup: Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to a clean, airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Shake well before each use as some separation may occur.

Notes

  • If preferred, substitute brown or coconut sugar for monk fruit or allulose, but note this will add sugar and calories.
  • Xanthan gum is optional; omit if you prefer a thinner syrup.
  • Make sure to whisk continuously when adding xanthan gum to prevent clumps.
  • This syrup is great for coffee, lattes, or drizzling over desserts and oatmeal.
  • Store refrigerated and shake well before using as natural separation may happen.
  • Adjust pumpkin pie spice according to your taste preference.
