Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1 frozen banana for natural sweetness and creaminess
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt use coconut yogurt for dairy-free option
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey adjust to taste
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon extra for that warming kick
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds optional, for extra fiber and omega-3s
  • 8-10 ice cubes
  • 1 pinch sea salt enhances the flavors

Instructions
 

  • Add pumpkin puree, frozen banana, and almond milk to your blender. The frozen banana creates that creamy ice-cream-like texture without adding extra calories.
  • Add Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and all spices to the blender. Don't skip the pinch of salt—it enhances the sweetness perception without adding extra sugar.
  • Sprinkle in chia seeds if using. These tiny powerhouses pack fiber and provide plant-based omega-3 fatty acids that support brain health.
  • Add ice cubes and blend everything on high speed until perfectly smooth, about 45-60 seconds. For the silkiest texture, start your blender on low and gradually increase to high speed.
  • Taste and adjust as needed. Need more sweetness? Add a touch more maple syrup. Want more spice? A dash more cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice. Prefer it thinner? Add a splash more almond milk.
  • Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately. Optional: top with a sprinkle of cinnamon, a dollop of coconut whipped cream, and a few crushed pecans for contrasting texture.

Notes

Substitution Notes:
  • For extra protein: Add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
  • Dairy-free option: Replace Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt
  • Lower sugar option: Use ½ frozen banana and add a few drops of stevia
  • Nut-free variation: Use oat milk or coconut milk instead of almond milk
Storing Tips:
  • Make-Ahead Freezer Packs: Combine all ingredients except liquid and yogurt in freezer bags. Store for up to 3 months.
