I LOVE Starbucks, but I am not fond of the amount of added sugar. I love to cook my favorite food and drinks at home because I can directly control the amount of each added ingredient. One serving of this recipe has 11 grams of sugar. A tall pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks has 30 grams of sugar. This recipe cuts the sugar by more than half.
The fall and winter months are usually the hardest times to remain focused on healthy lifestyle initiatives and goals. There’s football, the holidays, parties, and great food is everywhere! Small changes go a long way. Swapping out your Starbucks drink for something you prepare at home can go a long way.
Don’t have an Instant Pot? This recipe will also work well in a slow-cooker. Place on high for 2 hours.

It's crazy how much sugar is in a regular Starbucks PSL! Love your skinny version of this drink. I recently bought an Instant Pot so I need to add this to my list of recipes to try. Can't wait to try!
Shashi at Savory Spin says
Yesterday I walked by an Instant Pot and oogled at it - this recipe makes me wanna go back to the store and bring that Instant Pot home! YUM!
jacquee | i sugar coat it! says
I stopped drinking the SB PSL shortly after I started and have been making my own. Will have to give this one a try!

I seriously need to buy an Instant Pot! We had our first Pumpkin spice latte over the weekend. Only the first, there are more in the near future. Your recipe looks scrumptious!
Ashley says
All those PSL fans need to check out this recipe. If you make a skinny white mocha let me know!
staysnatched says
Ohhhh let me add that to my list now!
Alicia Taylor says
I love how low in added sugars this is! And what a boost of vitamins from the pumpkin. I don't have an instant pot, but I think my slow cooker would love to cook this for me.
Milena says
I know so many pumpkin spice and Starbucks freaks that will love this one! Maybe I'll have the girls over for some!
Nicole Aguilar says
OMG yum! I love this recipe for so many reasons. The chemicals in the actual PSL are so scary, but this is so natural. I definitely won't feel bad drinking it.
Lauren says
Thank you for saving me over $4.00 a day with this recipe. I will be making these at home now. It is crazy how much sugar is in any of those drinks.
staysnatched says
You're welcome! And yes it's so crazy how much sugar is used.
Keikilani says
This looks so delicious! I would really love to curl up with a big mug right now. Instant pots are so great for making PSL.
reesa says
Oh this looks like it's good! It's probably so much better than the real PSL!
Lois Alter Mark says
WHAT?! I can't believe you can make this with an Instant Pot! I'm a huge Starbucks fan and I am definitely going to have to try this. Love that adorable glass, too!

Rebecca B. says
Grabbing my mug and be right over. This is so yummy. I am going to have to try to make this, this weekend.
Angela Tolsma says
I would totally make this for a halloween party! Instant pot is definitely something I need to invest in!
Melanie Walsh says
I am so behind! I can't believe I still don't own an instant pot. This recipe alone requires one. I love the PSL, but the cost and my waistline could use this DIY version.
Sylvie Anne Hanes says
Oh I have to try this! I love the pumpkin taste, we typically cook a pumpkin each week until they are no longer available. Therefore I have fresh pumpkin on hand for muffins etc. And the fact this can be done with almond milk (I am lactose intolerant) is even better! THanks for sharing
Linda Music says
Looks delicious. I'll definitely be giving this amazing latte a try.
Tanya @ Intimate Explorations says
I'm intrigued by the instant pot and must confess I love the pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks. The price is a natural obstacle to consuming all the pumpkin spice calories I would if I could. But maybe your recipe allows me to enjoy the yumminess guilt-free! Things to think about! ????
Stephanie says
I don't have an instant pot (yet) but if I did I would definitely try this out! This looks great!!

Cat Khanh says

This sounds so divine - perfect for a little pick-me-up! I love using stevia as a sugar alternative too. 🙂
Glenda says
Oh my gosh, this skimmy pumpkin spice latte looks super delicious. I've never had it before but would love to.
David Elliott says
I love all things pumpkin. And it's so great that you have been able to do something here with a little less sugar. It looks so delicious.
Vanessa says
Great recipe! Thanks for sharing. I'm not necessarily a Starbuck fan, but it seems quite easy to try.
Emily says
This sounds delicious! This sounds so perfect for the fall season!
Asha says
Looks amazing! Could this recipe be modified to be made on a stove top?
staysnatched says
Yes. It would just take longer to simmer.
Nick says
Do we add fresh pumpkin? Canned? And ginger? Is that fresh or dried?
staysnatched says
I used Libby's Pureed Pumpkin. I also used chopped ginger that I purchased in a jar in the produce section at my local grocer.
Theresa says
I would like to half this recipe since I will probably be the only one drinking this. Would time still be same using instapot ir would I do it for less? Thanks!
staysnatched says
Hi there. I have not tested using half of the serving allotment. I would suggest trying 3 minutes cook time. If you need additional cook time, add an additional 1 minute until you reach desired results.
Theresa says
So I made this today and the taste was great but I had an issue with it not being smooth. Though it looked liked it was completely dissolved it tasted gritty when sipping. Followed directions to
The t so not sure why it would taste this way. Any suggestions ?
staysnatched says
You could try pressure cooking for an additional minute until it reaches your desired texture. You could also try using an immersion blender.

Thanks I’ll give that a try
