Pumpkin Pie Smoothie
This creamy, delicious pumpkin smoothie tastes like pumpkin pie in a glass. It's one of those favorite fall recipes I’m always happy to put in our rotation as a great breakfast, a filling snack, or a healthy dessert.
Servings: 4
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 frozen bannas cut in half
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- Optional: top with whipped cream and a bit of pumpkin spice
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to the blender, securing the lid.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Pour into glasses or jars, then top with whipped cream and a dusting of extra pumpkin spice.
Notes
- I love using pure maple syrup for this recipe. It adds a lovely maple flavor, but it also blends more readily than honey.
- Frozen banana makes this smoothie thick and extra creamy. If you don’t have frozen bananas, you can get by with fresh ones.
- Either canned pumpkin or homemade pumpkin puree works great.
- If the smoothie seems too thick, add a little more milk to thin it out.
- Want to make your own whipped cream? Check out my post for sourdough strawberry shortcake for two simple steps to homemade whipped cream!
