Gingerbread Coffee Creamer
Suffering from acid reflux, I finally switched from drinking my coffee black to adding some milk in it. Right away, I saw a big improvement. Prior to doing that though, once in a blue moon, I had some creamer in my cup of joe ☕.
It all begin when, back in the 90s’, I came across a few different flavors from International Delight. Although drinking my coffee black, it was a nice change to add one of those little cups. Soon after, I stopped having them when I looked at the ingredient list – way too many chemicals 🧪 for my liking.
Slowly, I started experimenting in my kitchen with my favorite flavors. Eventually, I came up with my own healthy versions 💚 of French Vanilla, Caramel Latte, Butterscotch, Hazelnut, and Pumpkin as well as this featured recipe… Gingerbread Coffee Creamer!
Loaded with flavor, this condiment is incredibly delicious and perfect for your daily cup of joe plus there’s no food additives… bonus! It takes less than 15 minutes ⏰ to make and you’ve got yourself a nice coffee enhancer!
Sweetened condensed milk is one of the ingredients. As most of my followers/subscribers are from both Canada 🍁 and the USA, let’s clarify an important detail…
On Canadian cans, we see 300 ml or 10 oz. while Americans say 14 oz. Actually, both have the same amount in the can which is 1 ¼ cups so keep the same measurements for the other ingredients. Why aren’t both countries labelling it the same? No idea 😟!
When it comes to half-and-half, you can easily substitute whole milk but don’t use heavy cream! This Gingerbread Coffee Creamer is already rich as it is. Can 1 or 2% 🥛 be another option? What about skim milk? I don’t use it but if you do, let me know how the flavor turns out…
While filming 🎥 the recipe, my spice grinder decided to quit on me. Like they say – “the show must go on” – but when grinding the spices before adding them to the pot, not only will they blend better into the mixture but the appearance at the end will be a bit nicer too.
This Gingerbread Coffee Creamer adds a touch of Holiday flair 🎄 to your cup of joe! It’s a quick and easy recipe to make, there’s no preservatives plus it’s perfect for the festive season! Whether the spices have been ground or not, you should shake the creamer each time before serving.
Cheers!🥂

We made it last night and this morning, we enjoyed our coffee with this creamer. Frankie, it’s better than the one they sell at the store!!! Thank you. Now my wife wants to try your butterscotch coffee creamer
I’m happy you enjoyed the recipe 😊! Did you grind the spices furthermore? Lol, that’s great! Butterscotch is another favorite 💖 of mine! Have a lovely weekend
