Ingredients
Smoothie Ingredients
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- 1 T chia seeds
- 1 cup milk of choice
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Ice cubes, as needed to thicken
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: Place the frozen bananas, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, chia seeds, milk, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and ice cubes into a high-powered blender.
- Blend: Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if necessary to ensure even blending.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses. Optionally garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon, a dollop of whipped cream, and chopped pecans for added texture and flavor.
- Enjoy immediately: Serve your pumpkin pie smoothie fresh for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Add some greens such as spinach or kale to boost nutrition; note this will change the smoothie’s orange color.
- Turn it into a smoothie bowl by using half the milk and blending thicker; top with granola, chopped pecans, and whipped cream.
- If you don’t have pumpkin puree, substitute sweet potato or butternut squash puree for a similar fall flavor and vibrant color.
- Pour smoothie into popsicle molds and freeze for a fun, healthy frozen treat.
