Ingredients

Base

  • 1/2 cup 100% pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 chopped frozen banana
  • 1/4 cup skim milk (or almond milk)

Flavorings

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp honey

Add-ins

  • 6-10 ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients including pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, frozen banana, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, honey, and ice cubes to ensure a smooth blending process.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Add the pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, chopped frozen banana, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and honey to a high-quality blender.
  3. Blend Smoothie: Start blending the mixture while adding 6 ice cubes initially; blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Adjust Consistency: Gradually add more ice cubes, blending between additions, until the desired thick and frosty consistency is achieved.
  5. Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately. Optionally, enjoy it with a spoon if you prefer a thicker, frosty texture.

Notes

  • For a thicker smoothie, like a frosty, add more ice cubes and reduce the milk slightly.
  • For a thinner texture suited for sipping, increase the milk and reduce the ice.
  • Pumpkin pie spice can be used instead of ground cinnamon for a more complex flavor.
  • Use almond milk instead of skim milk for a dairy-free variation.
  • Ensure to blend well to achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
