Looking for a great non-dairy latte that is foamy, frothy and delicious? You’ve got to try my oat milk latte! It’s like an oatmeal cream pie in a glass! Let me show you how to make this easy DIY coffee that you can enjoy at home any time.
I love all things coffee and that includes the creamers and milks that go along with it. When a new coffee creamer or milk comes out, I like to try it out. You never know what your new favorite coffee will be with the addition of a new milk or creamer.
That goes for non-dairy milks and creamers as well. I love a good coconut milk in my morning brew and the non-dairy heavy cream is one of my favorites. When a new oat milk came out, I had to try it! I whipped up a few oat milk lattes and then created this oatmeal cream pie flavored version. It’s easy to make and a great DIY coffee you can make at home.
What is an oat milk latte?
A latte is a coffee drink made with espresso and hot steamed milk. Instead of regular milk here, we use oat milk to make it an oat milk latte. My at home version also uses warmed milk instead of steamed. It makes the coffee easier to put together but steamed milk can be used as well.
My oat milk latte goes a little further and adds some marshmallow fluff to make it more of an oatmeal cream pie latte. The marshmallow is optional, but makes for one heck of a coffee!
Oat milk latte ingredients
You only need a few ingredients to make this oat milk latte, the most important one being the oat milk! You will also need:
- espresso or strong coffee
- marshmallow cream or sugar
- Oat Yeah Oatmeal Creamer or similar
- whipped cream, optional
- oatmeal cream pie, optional
Coffee – A traditional latte uses espresso as it’s base. I like to use a strong, hot coffee instead of espresso, but either work. Check out my guide on the types of coffee to use for your at home drinks.
Sweetener – If you want to do a plain oat milk latte, use your favorite sweetener or sugar of choice here. If you want to make it an oatmeal cream pie latte, use a dollop of marshmallow fluff here.
Oat milk – Use your favorite oat milk or oat milk creamer for this recipe. Oat milk makes an amazing latte because it gets creamier the warmer it gets. If you want to froth it, this is my favorite milk frother.
Optional garnishes – To make your oat milk latte even fancier, top with homemade whipped cream and half an oatmeal cream pie!
How to make an oat milk latte
Once you have all your ingredients, grab your favorite coffee mug, a spoon and a milk frother, is using.
Step 1 – Brew your coffee. If you are using espresso, make a shot of espresso. If you are using coffee, brew or warm up a good strong coffee. Pour your hot coffee in your mug.
Step 2 – Add your sweetener. If you are using marshmallow fluff, add it to the mug after your coffee. Stir to combine. You can also use your favorite sugar or not sweetener at all.
Step 3 – Add your oat milk. You have a few options here for your latte. You can simply add in your cold oat milk or oat milk creamer to your hot coffee.
If you want a true latte, warm up your milk in a heavy bottomed pot over the stove. Pour the hot milk into your mug of coffee. You can also froth your warmed milk before adding it to your cup. Any of these options work and produce a great oat milk latte.
Step 4 – Optional toppings. If you’d like, add whipped cream and half an oatmeal cream pie to your latte. You can even crumble a bit of the oatmeal cream pie on top. This is totally optional but makes for a super fancy latte!
