Description
This creamy and delicious smoothie is a healthy, frozen twist on the classic Pumpkin Spice Latte. If you love coffee and pumpkin, you will love this decadent drink! Bonus: it’s packed with nutrition and can be enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack anytime of day.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup brewed coffee, cooled
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 (120 g) frozen banana
- 1/2 cup (110 g) pumpkin puree
- 1 serving (40 g) plant-based vanilla protein powder (I used Vega Performance Protein)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- optional: 2-3 pitted dates or 1 tbsp maple syrup or coconut sugar
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a high-powered blender and mix until completely smooth.
- Pour into a glass and enjoy!
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.
