Instructions

Heat the oat milk: In a saucepan, heat 1 cup of oat milk over medium heat until it is hot, but not boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent it from scorching.
Brew the espresso or coffee: While the oat milk is heating, brew your espresso (1 shot) or prepare 1/2 cup of strong coffee. If using a coffee maker, use a darker roast for a bolder flavor.
Mix the ingredients: In a large mug, combine the heated oat milk, brewed espresso (or coffee), 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
Froth the oat milk (optional): For an even creamier texture, use a milk frother to whip the oat milk before mixing it with the other ingredients. This step will add air to the milk, creating a light, frothy effect.
Garnish: If desired, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over the top of your latte for added flavor and a beautiful presentation.
Serve and enjoy: Your Creamy Honey Oatmilk Latte is now ready to enjoy! Savor every sip and let the cozy flavors wrap around you like a warm hug.
