In a saucepan over medium heat, stir the pumpkin, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice until combined. Slowly whisk in the almond milk. Bring the mixture to a low simmer, stirring occasionally and remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract.
Transfer the mixture to a blender and pulse several times until foamy and frothy. You may also use a hand-held immersion blender instead.
Add the milk mixture to your hot coffee. You may want to use a spoon to gently hold back the frothy top layer while pouring. Top your latte with the remaining froth.
Top with a dollop of homemade whipped coconut cream and sprinkle with additional pumpkin pie spice.
