All you need to make this pumpkin spice latte smoothie is: 1 frozen banana, pumpkin puree, brewed coffee, plant-based vanilla protein, almond milk and some spices. I usually toss in a couple dates for some extra sweetness.

Easy Caramel Sauce

I’ve made this smoothie with a couple different caramel-inspired sauces to drizzle on top. To make sweet, delicious, healthy sauces, I like to mix a nut butter or tahini with either maples syrup, dates or coconut sugar and then thin it out with a bit of water. You can also you coconut milk for an even creamier sauce with more flavour.

Here are a couple amazing combos you can try:

  1. 1 tbsp tahini + 1 tsp coconut sugar, stir in a bit of water or coconut milk, mixing vigorusly until you can drizzle it
  2. 1 tbsp cashew butter + a few small, pitted fresh dates + a pinch of sea salt, soak dates in a bit of hot water, strain then blend everything together, adding a bit of water or coconut milk to reach desired consistency
  3. 1 tbsp almond butter + 1 tbsp pure maple syrup + a pinch of sea salt, stir in a bit of water or coconut milk, mixing vigorously until you can drizzle it

Any and all of these combos are amazing! Try almond butter and dates or dates and and tahini, you really can’t go wrong. They will take your creations to the next level!

Notes

You may need more milk to reach desired consistency. If you prefer you can use more coffee and less milk…or all coffee! I use about 1 cup of liquid total.
If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, use 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger and 1/4 tsp each of nutmeg and allspice.

    Ok…..so I made this double for 2 servings, awful, 🙁 Too strong, wayyyyy too much spice, def could make this 1 serving for 2 servings, also, I’d use 1/2 a banana for 2 total, so if you’re using it for 1 serving, I’d do 1/4 of a banana, maybe it was my protein powder, and I am vegan, but ya, not my thing,

    As much as the chemicals etc suck, there’s no mimicking them, lol. It wasn’t like so bad I threw it out but I def drank it because. why not. I still give the author an A effort.

    Subbed coffee protein instead of vanilla because I prefer it to be coffee forward 😉and threw in some ice and a TBS of almond butter YUM!! Thank you!

  3. I make smoothies almost every single day, and this is absolutely the best one I’ve made yet! Starbucks doesn’t even come close 🙂

  4. OMG! This is easily the most delicious smoothie I’ve ever seen. I’m off to the kitchen straight after I finish this to make it. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Mari x
