Pumpkin Spice Oatmilk Latte

Instead of heading to the drive through for a pumpkin spiced latte, why not make your own instead at home!  It is a great use for that little bit of leftover pumpkin you sometimes get from other recipes, and it is healthier too!  Traditional pumpkin spiced lattes are usually filled with fake flavors, and loads of refined sugar and dairy.  But this one is made with maple syrup and oatmilk!  It is delicious, and perfect for a cool fall day!
