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

I’m looking forward to trying this recipe as I love every one of your smoothies that I’ve made so far!
I was just wondering about the pumpkin puree – is this supposed to say 1/4cup of pumpkin? Otherwise, how much would a 1/4can be (what size can)?
Thanks!
