A Cozy Fall Treat That’s High Protein and Bariatric-Friendly!
There’s just something about fall that makes me crave everything pumpkin spice — but after bariatric surgery, I’ve learned how to enjoy all those seasonal favorites in a protein-forward and low-carb way. That’s how this Pumpkin Spice Butter Toffee Protein Coffee was born! It’s creamy, cozy, and tastes like dessert in a cup — without all the sugar and calories.
This drink gives you the best of both worlds: the warm spice of pumpkin with a buttery toffee twist. Plus, it’s packed with protein to help keep you full and fueled throughout the day.
☕ What You’ll Need
Protein Coffee Base:
- 1 cup of Pumpkin Spice Coffee
- 1 Vanilla Protein Shake (I use Elevation from Aldi)
- A splash of Jordan’s Pumpkin Spice Skinny Syrup
- A splash of Jordan’s Butter Toffee Skinny Syrup
- A swirl of Jordan’s Salted Caramel Sauce (around your cup)
- 6 ice cubes
Pumpkin Cold Foam:
- About 1/8 cup of heavy cream
- 1 Tablespoon pumpkin puree
- A drizzle of Jordan’s Pumpkin Spice Skinny Syrup
- A sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice
🧡 How to Make It
- Prepare the coffee: Brew one cup of Pumpkin Spice Coffee.
- Swirl your cup: Drizzle some Salted Caramel Sauce around the inside of your cup for that extra fall sweetness.
- Pour coffee over ice.
- Add protein & flavor: Pour in your vanilla protein shake and add splashes of the Pumpkin Spice and Butter Toffee syrups. Give it a good stir.
- Make the cold foam: In a small cup, add your heavy cream, pumpkin puree, syrup, and pumpkin pie spice. Froth it until thick and creamy.
- Top it off: Pour the cold foam over your iced protein coffee, sprinkle a little extra pumpkin pie spice on top, and enjoy!
