Fall Flavor: Pumpkin Spice Smoothie Recipe


Rich in vitamins and minerals, pumpkin is a great source of nutrients like vitamin C and carotenoids. When combined with potassium-rich banana, delicious fall-spice blend—cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and clove—  protein-packed peanut butter and almond milk, you’ve got yourself a delicious and nutritious fall-flavored smoothie. Plus, it tastes like pie… and who doesn’t love pie?! 

Here’s what you’ll need: 

WHAT YOU’LL NEED: 

• 1 ripe banana

• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

• ½ teaspoon ginger powder

• ½ teaspoon ground clove

• 1 tablespoon of peanut butter or peanut butter powder

• ½ cup of pumpkin puree

• 1-2 cups of almond milk

• ice (optional)

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

1. In a blender, combine spices, banana, peanut butter, pumpkin puree, ice (optional) and almond milk. You might want to start off with 1 cup of almond milk and add the second cup if needed.

2. Blend until smooth.

3. Pour into a cold glass and serve immediately. 

Editor’s tip: Turn this fall smoothie into a protein shake by adding 1 scoop of plain or vanilla flavored protein powder. To keep it vegan, look for a plant-based protein powder at your local health food store.
