A Slightly Better Pumpkin Coffee

Hello Friends!

I have been trying to post here on the blog weekly. Tuesdays seem to be working well for this fall. You can find me on Facebook and Instagram a little more often.

Sometimes you will see repurposed content that was shared my other channels but tweaked for this space, sometimes it will be brand-spankin’ new and fresh. There are certain things I like to post here to refer back to later. Yes, I search my own blog! Like when I make my Pumpkin Dump Cake for Friendsgiving. Mmmm, that’s a good one!

I have a quick recipe of sorts to share with you today to make a yummy pumpkin-flavored coffee drink.

I didn’t really measure anything here, which is pretty typical of how I roll in the kitchen. So much of the nourishment we get through food is by taste anyway, yes?

This was really just an experiment of heavy whipping cream, pumpkin puree, and cinnamon. It did best in the blender, only taking about 30 seconds, rather than hand mixing which takes several minutes.

My body doesn’t really crave sugar often anymore unless I give it a bit, and all of a sudden that’s all it wants, dang it! Those seasonal Reeses I posted about last week, yeah, those totally do me in.

By the way, the coffee mug winner was announced and after doing a little peek at the winner’s Facebook page I sent her THIS “Awesome Mom” mug.

Back to the pumpkin coffee, if you haven’t kicked sugar yet you may want to add a little something to sweeten this. Regular sugar, maple syrup, that kind of thing.

I’ll modify this a little more next time, possibly with coconut milk as the boys and I don’t tolerate dairy exceptionally well (even if we straight up LOVE it).

From Instagram Stories Last Week. I like to share my gratitude there.

I made this for the whole house and had leftover cream. It whips up bigger than you think it will, so keep that in mind!

Ingredients:

A Cup of Hot Brewed Black Coffee for Each Person

16 oz Heavy Whipping Cream

1/2 Can of Pumpkin Puree (not pie filling)

Several Shakes of Cinnamon

Sweetener if you choose.

Add everything except the coffee to the blender. Once whipped into a cream scoop over a cup of hot coffee.

How are you doing lately, friends? I really want to know! You can always reach me at my inbox aslightlybetterwife@gmail.com I treasure the conversations I have been having with some of you there.

We’ve been well. Life seems to be getting busier again, and through months of having a slow pace I’ve learned that I truly appreciate the slow seasons, less calendar clutter, and hours on end of just being with my family without any agenda dictating what we should be doing next. It’s been lovely. Yes, there have been plenty of things to dislike about what is going on in the world, but I have been careful to curate a space of peace for this sweet family of mine and we are all happy.

“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” John 14:27

Hey Friend! I am truly so glad that you’re here today!

At A Slightly Better Wife, I share about faith, homemaking, homeschooling, and marriage—along with my passion for creating a non-toxic, intentional home. Life isn’t about perfection, but I believe in making small, meaningful choices each day to do things slightly better than before.

My love for simple living and homemaking was deeply shaped by my grandparents. I have the best childhood memories of being in the kitchen with my Grandma Edna, learning the beauty of home-cooked meals and a well-tended home. My Grandpa Link’s storytelling and wisdom instilled in me the value of faith, family, and slowing down to listen during the little moments that make life rich. Their influence is woven into who I am today and I’m so grateful for that.

I’m a wife, a momma of 5, and a homemaker at heart. My husband and I met young, just days after my 18th birthday, and we quickly (like within a week) knew that forever was in our plans.

Together, we built our home on the edge of town, where we’re raising and homeschooling our children while embracing a simple, purposeful life in the city.

Here, you’ll find encouragement for your marriage, practical tips for homemaking, and inspiration to cultivate a home filled with faith and love. Whether you’re looking for a recipe, a fresh perspective, or just a place to feel understood, I hope you’ll stay awhile and explore.

Let’s pursue slightly better together!
