Did I say that pumpkin oatmeal was one of my favorite fall breakfasts? Well technically it still is but this smoothie is ammmaaazzzing. I wish I could give you one right now because you wouldn’t believe me when I tell you it’s 100% (1000%) healthy. It’s like a pumpkin milkshake. It’s like magic.
When I drink smoothies for breakfast I usually cook up a couple of boiled eggs to eat on the side for some added protein staying power. Some mornings I’m too cold for smoothie drinking but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying one later in the day for dessert.
After you’ve made it once and fallen in love try adding a one or two handfuls of baby spinach next time for an even bigger nutrient boost. Don’t be scared – you won’t even taste it! Vegetables for dessert – you’re welcome.
- ½ cup fat-free vanilla yogurt
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk OR ½ cup skim milk
- ½ banana, frozen
- ½ cup pumpkin
- ⅛ tsp pumpkin pie spice, to taste *
- ⅛ tsp cinnamon, to taste*
- baby spinach (optional)
- Put all ingredients in blender and blend until well mixed.
- Enjoy!

OMG, this sounds and looks AMAZING!! And I have all the ingredients for it too! I’m going on a cleanse the next few days, so I will be making it Thursday morning for my breakfast!! Thank you!
Hope you like it! Though I can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t =)
This looks very incredible.
Nice another smoothie recipe to add to my repertoire…looks really good!
I think I am the only one on the planet who does not like pumpkin!
I think you’re right – maybe you should seek the advice of a doctor because it’s just not right! haha
I made this today! It is my new fave!! I posted about you on my blog!
Awesome! You rock, chica!
That pumpkin smoothie looks so delicious! I’ve recently bought a Kenwood blender, the K-Mix, and since then I’m quite addicted to smoothies. Will try your recipe for sure! Never tasted a smoothie made out of pumpkins before, but this one looks so good, I’m sure I’ll love it!
Greetings from Spain! xo
