Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree Use 100% pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling.
  • 1 medium banana Frozen banana works best for a creamier texture.
  • 1 cup milk Use almond milk, cow's milk, or any milk of choice.
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup Adjust sweetness to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice Can substitute with a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract For added flavor.
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt Use plain or vanilla-flavored for creaminess.
  • ½ cup ice cubes Optional, for a colder smoothie.

Method
 

Blend the Ingredients
  1. In a blender, add the canned pumpkin puree. This will provide the base flavor and creaminess for the smoothie.
  2. Peel and break the banana into smaller pieces and add it to the blender. The banana adds natural sweetness and a creamy texture.
  3. Pour in the milk of your choice. This will help blend the ingredients smoothly.
  4. Add the maple syrup for sweetness. You can adjust the amount based on your taste preference.
  5. Sprinkle in the pumpkin pie spice. This will give the smoothie its signature fall flavor.
  6. Add the vanilla extract for an aromatic touch.
  7. Include the Greek yogurt for added creaminess and protein.
  8. If you prefer a colder smoothie, add the ice cubes.
  9. Blend on high speed until all ingredients are smooth and creamy, about 30-60 seconds. Stop to scrape down the sides if necessary.
Serve the Smoothie
  1. Pour the smoothie into serving glasses. You can use a spatula to help scrape out any remaining smoothie from the blender.
  2. Optionally, sprinkle a little extra pumpkin pie spice on top for garnish.
  3. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious pumpkin smoothie!
