Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 medium banana, frozen (optional – omit for a low carb version)
- 1/2 cup white chocolate hazelnut spread
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients: pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, frozen banana, white chocolate hazelnut spread, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and vanilla extract.
- Add to Blender: Place the pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, frozen banana (if using), white chocolate hazelnut spread, Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract into a blender.
- Blend Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, with no large chunks remaining. This should take about 30-60 seconds depending on your blender’s power.
- Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add more almond milk in small increments and blend again until desired consistency is reached.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Omitting the banana results in a lower-carb smoothie.
- Use canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, for best flavor and texture.
- White chocolate hazelnut spread adds sweetness and richness; you can substitute with nut butter for a different twist.
- Ensure banana is frozen to achieve a cold, creamy smoothie without ice.
- For vegan option, replace Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt.
