This Homemade Oatmeal Cookie Coffee Creamer brings the warm, comforting flavors of your favorite oatmeal cookie right into your morning cup of coffee. Made with real oats, cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla, this creamy, dairy-friendly creamer adds a cozy, sweet twist that’s perfect for coffee, tea, or even hot chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale

Dairy Base

  • 2 cups whole milk (or milk of your choice)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)

Sweeteners & Flavorings

  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Oatmeal Component

  • 1 tablespoon quick oats

Instructions

  1. Heat the Milk and Cream: In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and heavy cream. Place over medium heat and warm until it’s just steaming—do not let it boil to preserve the texture and flavor.
  2. Add Sweeteners and Spices: Stir in the brown sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, and quick oats. Let the mixture simmer gently for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to allow the flavors to infuse fully.
  3. Add the Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before straining.
  4. Strain and Bottle: Pour the creamer through a fine-mesh strainer to remove the oats and any spice bits, ensuring a smooth texture. Transfer the strained creamer into a glass jar or bottle for storage.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Add a splash of your homemade oatmeal cookie creamer to coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. Stir well and savor the warm, inviting flavors.

Notes

  • Do not skip the oats—they create the oatmeal cookie vibe and add creaminess but make sure to strain them out for a smooth creamer.
  • Adjust the sweetness by reducing the brown sugar or maple syrup according to your taste preferences.
  • Use fresh ground cinnamon for the best flavor as spices lose potency over time.
  • Try adding a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of almond extract to enhance the flavor profile.
  • This creamer keeps fresh for up to 5 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Shake well before each use to mix any settled spices or ingredients.
  • For a sugar-free version, substitute brown sugar and maple syrup with stevia or monk fruit sweeteners.
  • Freeze excess creamer in ice cube trays for convenient single servings in future cups of coffee.
