A cozy and flavorful Hazelnut Maple Cappuccino featuring rich espresso combined with warm maple syrup and nutty hazelnut extract, topped with creamy frothed milk, crunchy toasted hazelnuts, and optional whipped cream for an indulgent coffee experience.

Ingredients

Scale

Coffee Base

  • 1 to 2 shots espresso or strong brewed coffee

Milk & Flavorings

  • 3/4 cup milk (whole or oat recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon hazelnut extract or syrup

Toppings

  • 1 tablespoon chopped hazelnuts (toasted optional)
  • 2 tablespoons whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brew the Espresso. Prepare 1 to 2 shots of espresso or brew a strong coffee using your preferred method to form the base of the cappuccino.
  2. Heat and Froth the Milk. Warm 3/4 cup of milk (whole or oat milk recommended) until hot but not boiling, then froth it using a frother until it becomes airy and creamy to create the cappuccino foam.
  3. Add Flavorings to the Mug. Place 1 tablespoon maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon hazelnut extract or syrup into your cappuccino mug.
  4. Combine Espresso and Flavorings. Pour the hot espresso into the mug and stir well to blend the flavors with the maple syrup and hazelnut extract.
  5. Top with Frothed Milk. Gently pour the frothed milk over the espresso mixture, spooning the foam on top for the classic cappuccino texture.
  6. Add Maple Drizzle and Hazelnuts. Drizzle a little more maple syrup over the foam and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of chopped hazelnuts (toasted if desired) to add a crunchy texture and enhanced nutty flavor.
  7. Optional Whipped Cream Topping. For extra indulgence, add 2 tablespoons of whipped cream on top before serving immediately to enjoy the full depth of flavors.

Notes

  • Use whole milk for a creamier texture, or oat milk for a dairy-free alternative.
  • Toast the hazelnuts lightly in a pan for 3-5 minutes to enhance their flavor and crunch.
  • Adjust maple syrup and hazelnut extract quantities to taste based on desired sweetness and nuttiness.
  • Whipped cream is optional but adds richness and a luxurious finish to the drink.
  • For a decaf option, substitute espresso with decaf espresso shots or strong decaf brewed coffee.
