Notes
- Want to save time? Use store-bought pecan milk instead of making your own!
- You can also double this recipe and leave out the espresso to create a maple pecan coffee creamer! Simply store it in the refrigerator for quick, easy, delicious lattes throughout the week.
- Want more foam in your latte? Use an electric milk frother to froth the milk before adding the espresso!
