Selecting the Proper Components

For this pumpkin smoothie, you’ll mix a couple of favorites from fall’s bounty of flavors. However earlier than these go into the blender, be sure to have a frozen banana available as a result of it will likely be the bottom of the smoothie recipe. 

1. Frozen Banana: There isn’t a lot frozen banana, simply sufficient to provide the pumpkin smoothie its unparalleled creamy base. I exploit it on this inexperienced smoothie and chocolate peanut butter protein smoothie too. Beneath all of the pumpkin, maple, spice, and cinnamon, the banana taste is barely there. In case you want a smoothie recipe with out banana, my berry smoothie with out bananas matches the invoice.
2. Pumpkin: Use 100% pure pumpkin puree on this smoothie—not the can labeled “pumpkin pie filling.” You probably have further to make use of up, listed here are recipes to make with leftover pumpkin puree. If pumpkin drinks are your factor, I positively advocate making a batch of home made pumpkin espresso creamer to get pleasure from along with your morning espresso.
3. Actual maple syrup: For finest style, use pure maple syrup, not the one labeled “breakfast syrup” or “pancake syrup.”
4. Yogurt: We often use vanilla Greek yogurt on this recipe. Be happy to make use of common (non-Greek) vanilla or plain Greek yogurt as an alternative. Any fats content material works, from nonfat to entire.
5. Spices: As an alternative of ready pumpkin pie spice, strive including nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and/or extra cinnamon to style. You should utilize home made pumpkin pie spice right here, too.
6. Milk: We often use nonfat milk or unsweetened almond milk, however you should utilize any milk, dairy or nondairy, that you’ve available.
