Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

Delicious fresh pumpkin pie in a glass – smoothie style. Yum! All of the delicious spices and flavors of pie in less than ten minutes. Who needs the crust? This smoothie is tasty!

This is my entry for the October The Recipe Redux. The theme this month is "Fresh from the Pumpkin Patch" – a challenge to use fresh pumpkin. This is a great topic for October as fresh pumpkins are everywhere in Minnesota. I like my smoothies thick, so add another 1/2 cup of ice or a bit more soy milk if you don’t. If you want it thicker, try adding half of a frozen banana.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Prepare the pie pumpkin by cutting it in half and removing the seeds. Roasting in the oven face down for 60 minutes at 350F or until the outside skin can be pierced easily with a fork. Scrape the pumpkin from the shell and let cool.
  2. Put the ingredients into a blender (I used a vita-mix) in the order listed. Blend on high until smooth.
  3. Serve and enjoy!

Makes about 3 cups or two servings.
