Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 shot (1 oz / 30 ml) freshly brewed espresso or ½ cup (120 ml) strong brewed coffee
  • 1 cup (240 ml) oat milk, preferably barista-style
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar (dark brown sugar preferred)
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus a pinch for garnish
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Cinnamon stick (optional, for stirring and garnish)

Instructions

  1. Brew 1 shot (1 oz / 30 ml) of espresso or ½ cup (120 ml) of strong brewed coffee using a medium-dark roast. Set aside.
  2. Gently warm 1 cup (240 ml) of oat milk in a small saucepan over low heat or microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute, avoiding boiling.
  3. Froth the warm oat milk using a milk frother or whisk until light and creamy with soft bubbles.
  4. In a latte cup, stir 1 to 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon into the hot coffee until sugar dissolves completely.
  5. Optionally stir in ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract for added depth.
  6. Slowly pour the frothed oat milk over the coffee mixture, holding back foam with a spoon initially, then topping with foam.
  7. Garnish with a pinch of ground cinnamon or a cinnamon stick. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

[‘Do not boil oat milk to avoid separation or skin formation.’, ‘Stir brown sugar into hot coffee before adding oat milk to dissolve fully and avoid graininess.’, ‘Use barista-style oat milk for best frothing and creaminess.’, ‘For stronger cinnamon flavor, toast cinnamon lightly before grinding.’, ‘Adjust sweetness by varying brown sugar amount; cinnamon adds natural warmth.’, ‘If no frother, shake warm oat milk in a sealed jar or whisk vigorously.’, ‘Iced version: cool coffee and use cold oat milk over ice.’, ‘Substitute brown sugar with maple syrup or coconut sugar for sugar-free or vegan variations.’, ‘Store leftovers in airtight container in fridge up to 24 hours; reheat gently.’]
