Create a Café-Quality Hazelnut Cappuccino at Home! ☕️ㅣHome Café Recipe
On rainy or chilly days, elevate your mood with a warm cup of Hazelnut Cappuccino. The rich espresso, sweet hazelnut aroma, and velvety milk foam create a luxurious café experience right in your own home. Here’s a simple recipe for your perfect home café moment!
Ingredients
- 2 shots of strong espresso (approx. 60ml)
- 15g (or 2 Tbsp) of sweet hazelnut syrup
- 150ml of warm milk
- A generous amount of milk foam
- A pinch of cinnamon powder
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the base for our creamy Hazelnut Cappuccino by frothing the milk. Pour 270ml of cold milk into a milk frother or a steam pitcher. (If using an electric frother like Aeroccino, be careful not to exceed the maximum fill line.)
Step 2
Activate your milk frother or Aeroccino on the ‘warm’ setting. Let it run for about 1-2 minutes until the milk becomes warm and develops a rich, creamy foam. Once you have sufficient foam, stop the device.
Step 3
Prepare your serving mug and pour 2 shots of freshly brewed espresso (about 60ml) into the bottom. This forms the robust and slightly bitter foundation of your cappuccino.
Step 4
Next, add 15g of sweet hazelnut syrup (or about 2 tablespoons) over the espresso. The sweet, nutty aroma will beautifully complement the coffee. You can gently stir it in or leave it to meld as you pour the milk.
Step 5
Carefully pour 150ml of the warm milk into the mug containing the espresso and syrup. Pour steadily to allow the ingredients to naturally blend together.
Step 6
Now, gently spoon or pour the luscious milk foam over the top of the drink. This creates a velvety texture and a beautiful creamy layer, enhancing both the taste and visual appeal of your cappuccino.
Step 7
Finally, dust a pinch of aromatic cinnamon powder over the milk foam. A light sprinkle through a sieve will give an even distribution and add a warm, spicy note that pairs wonderfully with hazelnut.
Step 8
And there you have it – your delicious Hazelnut Cappuccino is ready! Enjoy this comforting homemade treat, perfect for a cozy day.
