Shopping Tips
Since creating this recipe, I bought an inexpensive handheld electric milk frother. I now use it all the time. And not just for this latte but for all my coffee and tea lattes. There are many brands to buy at Amazon, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond and such. I bought mine on Amazon. It cost only $8.99. Here’s the link to the Bonsenkitchen Electric Milk Frother, Automatic Milk Foam Maker: https://amzn.to/2KTfPah I found a can of coconut whipped topping at Trader Joe’s. It dairy-free and low sugar. Two tablespoons have just 15 calories and ½ gram of sugar. Top your latte with this topping, if desired. Storage Tips
Transfer canned pumpkin from an opened can into a refrigerator-safe container that is not made of metal. Seal the container tightly either with its own lid or with plastic wrap. Store the container in the refrigerator. Use within five days. Discard any remaining leftover canned pumpkin after five days in the refrigerator. You can freeze leftover canned pumpkin. Here are a couple of things to avoid freezer burn: Use a zip-lock bag made for freezing. After filling the bag try to remove as much air as possible. If you use a container make sure to only fill it ¾ full and cover it with wax paper or plastic wrap before adding the lid. Pumpkin has a lot of water so it will expand when frozen.
