Have your kids help you stack a few mini slap jacks on a skewer. Shake some powered sugar over the batch. Then top each stack with yummy seasonal berries. Serve them up on a plate with fruit and a nice cup of coffee or tea.

There you have it. A simple breakfast for dads and kids to prepare for the Queen of the House! Happy Mother’s Day!

Pumpkin Spice Coffee Frappuccino Recipe
(Scroll over top right of image to Pin to Pinterest)

This Pumpkin Spice Coffee Frappuccino Recipe provides a sweet and delicious autumn treat. If Fall is not quite the weather you expect, especially for us here in Florida, but you still want an Fall taste, this treat will keep you cool but still satisfy your pallet.

There is no need to spend $5 or more on a yummy coffee drink when you can make it at home yourself for a fraction of the cost! Don’t get me wrong I completely understand the call of the enchanting green siren, and do on occasion give in. But going in with the kids also means 2 cake pops and 2 organic milks, and don’t forget your drink! It becomes hard to make it out of the store for less than $15! When not indulging your self and saving the cash in your wallet, It’s nice to have an alternative recipe for home.

Frugal Tip: Anytime you have leftover coffee (ya me neither, but just in case you do) freeze it in ice cube trays to use for yummy iced coffee drinks.

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup coffee, frozen ( coffee ice cubes)
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 3 Tbsp. canned pumpkin
  • 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ tsp. cinnamon
  • 3 Tbsp. brown sugar

Directions:

Blend all ingredients in a blender until completely smooth, pour into glass. Top with whipped cream, a dash of pumpkin pie spice, and if you really want to be decadent, drizzle some caramel and sprinkle with candy sugar.
