Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

Pumpkin Pie Breakfast Smoothie

As I’ve mentioned before, I’m one of those people who loves pumpkin, and has no problem eating it any time of year, whether it’s in my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread, Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins, Low Carb Pumpkin Bars, or yeah, this Pumpkin Pie  Smoothie.

Pumpkin Smoothie with Whipped Cream

As much I love pumpkin, I don’t like the time and effort it takes to prepare fresh pumpkin, so all of my from-scratch pumpkin recipes use canned pumpkin puree. I always use the Libby brand, and apparently Huffpost’s report and the Kitchn’s post jibes with my taste in canned pumpkin! Once opened, you can refrigerate any unused pumpkin puree in an airtight container for up to a week.

For the spicing of this Pumpkin Pie Smoothie, I was lazy and just used McCormick Pumpkin Spice. If you don’t have any pumpkin pie spice, then you certainly can mix up your own with spices that you probably already have in your pantry. Chowhound, Pioneer Woman, and Martha Stewart all have similar recipes for homemade pumpkin pie spice. Here’s the printable recipe for a rich and flavorful Pumpkin Pie Smoothie:
