Taesha has hit out out of the park again with another fantastic recipe! Pumpkin anything is my go-to in the Fall so when I came across this recipe I was excited. It was SO good! It is creamy and the pumpkin really shines through without being too overpowering. It truly does taste like Fall in a glass.

We’re in that sweet spot between summer and fall, and this Pumpkin protein smoothie is what I’m reaching for on repeat during this season-straddling time.

School’s back, mornings are busier, and I’m starting to crave those cozy, earthy fall flavors. Enter: smoothies. Forever my go-to for a fast, feel-good breakfast when I’ve got zero prep done.

This one tastes like creamy pumpkin pie filling (but, you know…a smoothie). It’s got staying power thanks to the yogurt, milk, chia seeds, and a scoop of vanilla protein powder…and it comes together in like, 5 minutes (just how I like my weekday breakfasts!). Canned or homemade pumpkin puree both work beautifully, and either way, it’s a cozy little win for your morning. 🍂

Okay, let’s make this smoothie together. Just you and me….

Ingredients
 

  • 1 large ripe banana,  frozen , if not frozen, add a handful of ice cubes to the smoothie
  • ½ cup  pumpkin puree
  • ⅓ cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1 Tablespoon chia seeds, optional
  • ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup milk , any kind you prefer. I used 2% for mine.
  • 1 serving vanilla protein powder, optional, but if you skip, I suggest adding 1-2 Tablespoons maple syrup to balance out the earthy flavor of the pumpkin
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • Pinch of salt, optional; but it really makes the sweetness pop!
  • ice, as needed to reach desired consistency

Instructions
 

  • Combine ingredients in blender and blend until smooth.
  • Add more milk or some water if needed for a thinner smoothie or ice cubes for a thicker consistency. If you would like a sweeter smoothie, add more banana or a touch of maple syrup and reblend.
  • Portion your smoothie into two glasses and enjoy immediately on its own or topped with some whipped cream.
