This creamy Maple Tahini Latte is truly delightful. Tahini, maple syrup, and coffee may sound like an interesting combination, but it's quite good!
This Maple Tahini Latte is truly a wonderful surprise. I already knew that coffee and tahini went well together because I've put them both in a smoothie with cacao powder and loved it. So why not use tahini in a latte?
Tahini makes this vegan latte creamy, and maple syrup adds some sweetness. Tahini also adds some protein to slow down the caffeine rush.
Maple syrup and tahini also taste good in my Maple Tahini Dressing recipe.
Instructions
- Pour hot coffee into a mug. Pour tahini and maple syrup into the mug. Whisk with a fork so that the tahini blends in.
- Froth soy milk. If you don't have a milk frother you can blend it in a high speed blender, or shake it in a mason jar with a secure lid with a towel over it.
- Pour soy milk over coffee. Spoon foam on top.
- Top with cinnamon, if desired.
Tips
- Do NOT use a Nutribullet to blend hot soy milk. It doesn't do well with hot liquids. If you want to use it, blend cold soy milk.
- I used soy milk because it froths nicely. You can use any plant-based milk you like.
- You can use espresso instead of strong coffee. I used cold brew coffee because that's what I normally drink. It's less acidic than regular coffee.

Notes
Nutrition
*Note: Nutrition information should be considered an estimate only. Different nutrition calculators give you different results.
**Important! If you are gluten free you may want to avoid coffee altogether. I personally have never had a problem drinking it, and I have a gluten intolerance. It is probably because I drink whole bean organic coffee, and grind it myself. I learned that it can be problematic for people who don't tolerate gluten. So I did some research and one article mentioned to try organic whole bean coffee because it isn't highly processed causing cross-reactivity issues. So please do the research yourself, and test it out. I try to only post recipes that are 100% gluten free since I have a gluten intolerance. I am really careful about avoiding gluten in my daily life.
