Description

This smoothie is perfect for the Fall season and uses a balance of healthy ingredients to start your day right.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup crushed ice
  • 1/2 cup pure pumpkin
  • 1 apple, diced
  • 1 Tbsp. ground flax meal
  • 1 cup oat milk (or other non-dairy milk)
  • 1/2 cup full fat yogurt (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp. maple syrup
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

Instructions

  1. Put all ingredients in a high-speed blender or Nutri Bullet and blend until smooth.

Notes

Use plant based protein powder and non-dairy yogurt to make this recipe vegan/vegetarian.

Replace the protein powder with 2 Tbsp. of pecans or walnuts for protein without the powder.

Use full fat coconut milk in place of the yogurt.

Substitute chia or hemp seeds for the flax meal, if preferred.  All are great sources of Omega-3 fatty acids.
