Ingredients
  

Homemade Cinnamon Roll Syrup
  • 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste (can sub vanilla extract, just ensure you don't add it until the syrup has cooled)
  • 8 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup coconut sugar (can sub regular brown sugar if not paleo or brown sugar substitute for sugar free)
Cinnamon Roll Latte
  • 2 shots espresso (⅛-¼ cup strong coffee)
  • 2-4 tbsp cinnamon roll syrup
  • ½ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (I use Three Trees for the best froth!)
  • 2 tbsp coffee creamer (I use nutpods unsweetened cookie butter for amazing taste with no added sugar)
Garnishes (Optional)
  • 2 tbsp vanilla almond milk, frothed
  • cinnamon dusting

Method
 

Homemade Cinnamon Roll Syrup
  1. In a pot on the stove, combine all ingredients over medium/high heat and bring to a boil, stirring often. Note that if you are using vanilla extract instead of vanilla bean paste, add the extract after the syrup has cooled.
  2. Once boiling, bring the heat down a touch and allow to simmer for 5 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved, continuing to stir.
  3. Once the syrup ingredients are fully combined and no sugar remains, remove the pot from heat and allow to cool completely.
  4. Strain the syrup into a jar with a lid and keep refrigerated. I like to keep the cinnamon sticks in the syrup to make the flavor super robust. This syrup can be enjoyed in coffee or cocktails!
Cinnamon Roll Latte - Hot
  1. Add the cinnamon roll syrup to your glass/mug that you'll be brewing into and brew your favorite espresso to your liking. Mix once brewed to combine.
  2. Froth together coffee creamer and milk on the hot setting.
  3. Pour the frothed milk overtop of the coffee and syrup, then dust with cinnamon over the top. Enjoy!
Cinnamon Roll Latte - Iced
  1. Brew your favorite espresso to your liking and allow it to chill/cool down.
  2. Fill a glass with ice and pour your syrup over top.
  3. Then, forth the coffee creamer and milk together on the cold setting. Pour that over the ice and syrup.
  4. Pour your espresso over the top and mix everything together.
  5. If you'd like, froth 2 additional tbsp of milk on the cold setting, the pour it on top to create a fluffy, frosted cinnamon roll look.
  6. Dust the top with cinnamon and enjoy!
