Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

11/3/2015

Now that it is officially November, I am ready for more pumpkin! To me, pumpkin spice everything, starting in September, is a bit overkill. I believe we shouldn't rush things and mid October through November is most appropriate for the pumpkin flavors to be celebrated. With that in mind, I have been enjoying my favorite take on a pumpkin pie smoothie. All of the spices you enjoy in the pie, plus lots of healthy goodness. Enjoy! 

Pumpkin Pie Smoothie
  • 3/4-1 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 can organic pumpkin puree (about a cup)
  • 1 frozen banana
  • large handful of spinach
  • 1/2 a small avocado
  • 1-3 dates, depending on how sweet you like
  • 4 apricot kernels 
  • 2 t. ground cinnamon
  • 1 t. ground ginger
  • 1/4 t. ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 t. ground clove
  • unsweetened coconut flakes for added flavor and texture (optional)
​
Toss all items (aside from coconut flakes, if using) into a high speed blender. Blend until smooth. Reduce speed and add in coconut flakes, just until incorporated.
