Ingredients:

• 1 ¼ cup full fat, unsweetened coconut milk
• 3 tbsp. Brain Octane Oil
• 3 tbsp. organic pumpkin puree
• 1 tbsp. grass-fed unsalted butter or ghee
• 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
• ½ tsp. vanilla
• Optional:  1-2 tsp. xylitol or stevia (to taste)
• Optional: 2 tbsp. raw whipped cream or whipped coconut cream on top

Instructions:

1. Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Over medium heat, simmer for approximately five minutes.  Stir well to evenly blend spices and oils.
2. In a high-speed blender, add 2 1/2 cups Bulletproof coffee (brewed strong), add pumpkin spice mixture from saucepan – blend on high for 30 seconds until creamy and frothy.
3. (Option: if you don’t have a blender, add premade coffee to pumpkin mixture and use a hand blender in saucepan – blend till smooth and frothy.)
4. Optional: add xylitol, monk fruit, stevia, or other natural sweetener.
5. Optional: add raw cream/whipped cream on top for a special treat, if you can find it!

*** A quicker hack would just be to add a couple of tablespoons of pumpkin pie filling to your morning cup of Bulletproof Coffee. It’s tastier than it sounds.
It’s important to feel like you can have a treat now and then without spiraling into a blood sugar mayhem. Stick to this recipe and the healthy fats will give you energy for hours and the mini dose of pumpkin adds some nutrients to your morning.
