- 3 tablespoons pumpkin puree
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ cup water
- ⅔ cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Put pumpkin puree, water, and spices into a saucepan and simmer.Heat it on low-medium heat for 5-7 minutes. Do not boil. 3 tablespoons pumpkin puree, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ cup water
Stir in sweetened condensed milk and continue simmering.Once the puree mixture simmers, add the condensed milk to the saucepan and stir well. Simmer for another minute until condensed milk fully blends into mixture. ⅔ cup sweetened condensed milk
Turn off the heat and add vanilla extract. Make sure to add vanilla after heat is off. Let sauce cool. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pour sauce into an airtight container.Store sauce in the airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Always add vanilla extract to your saucepan after you've taken it off the heat. Vanilla extract loses a lot of its flavor when cooked.
- This recipe makes 1 cup (16 tablespoons) of pumpkin spice sauce. It can flavor and sweeten 8 grande-sized beverages if you use 2 tablespoons of sauce per drink, like Starbucks does.
- Since the sauce is thicker than a syrup, store it in a wide-mouth jar that can comfortably hold 1 cup.
