  • measuring spoons

Method
 

Step 1: Prep Ingredients
  1. Gather all the ingredients and measure them out. If you're using a frozen banana, let it soften slightly (or cut it into chunks for easier blending). Make sure your pumpkin puree is cold for a chilled smoothie.
Step 2: Layer Ingredients in Blender
  1. Add the ingredients to your blender in this order for smooth blending: Pumpkin puree, Frozen yogurt (or Greek yogurt), Almond milk, Banana (if you're using it), Protein powder, pumpkin spice, and sweeteners, Ice cubes last to help cool and thicken.
Step 3: Blend to Perfection
  1. Blend on high for about 45–60 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stop halfway to scrape down the sides of the blender if necessary.
Step 4: Taste and Adjust
  1. After blending, taste your smoothie. Add more pumpkin spice or sweetener if desired. If it's too thick, you can pour in a splash more almond milk.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
  1. Pour into a tall glass or your favorite mug, and garnish with a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg on top for an extra fall flare. Insert a straw, and enjoy your creation!
