Vanilla Pumpkin Smoothie

Savor the flavors of the season with a Vanilla Pumpkin Smoothie, a delightful concoction that captures the essence of autumn in a glass. Blending together the richness of your preferred milk, frozen pumpkin, and a touch of vanilla or salted caramel protein powder, this smoothie promises a velvety texture with every sip. Elevate the nutritional content with a dose of optional fiber from husk, chia, or flax.

Embrace the fall spices by adding pumpkin pie spice, a dash of pink salt, and a hint of cloves for a warm and comforting aroma. For a finishing touch, smear nonfat Greek yogurt on the sides of the cup, creating a visually appealing and creamy treat. Revel in the seasonal delight of a Vanilla Pumpkin Smoothie.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 c milk of choice

• 1/4 can of pumpkin, frozen

• 1 serving The Peachie Spoon Vanilla Protein or salted caramel protein

• 1-2 T husk/chia/flax (optional extra fiber)

• 1/2 c ice

• 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

• dash pink salt

• dash cloves

• ⅓ c nonfat greek yogurt (smeared on sides of the cup)

   

STEPS

1. Add ingredients in order listed through cloves to the blender and blend well.

2. Smear yogurt in your cup or bowl and pour smoothie over it. Topped mine with a little granola, unsw coconut, and pumpkin seeds for my healthy fats. If omitting the toppings, add 1-2 T of nut butter, unsw coconut flakes, frozen coconut, or 1/2 avocado to your smoothie for fats.

    

   Notes: I love fall and pumpkin everything so as a prep, I will freeze a can of pumpkin by breaking it into 1/4’s and freeze in baggies. Straight from the can works too but frozen will make a thicker, more creamy smoothie.
