Woohoo, it’s Fall (almost?)! So I was ready for the cooler months, figured out this recipe, but then wasn’t sure what to call it. Do I label it a smoothie or a shake? Typically, ice cream as the main ingredient makes a drink a shake, but what about if you use something like almond milk as your main liquid – as I do with this recipe? Is it then considered a smoothie, or some kind of hybrid that’s across between a smoothie and a shake? I know! I’ll call it a shoothie. Anyway, here’s the yummy delicious directions for this pumpkin smoothie recipe. Whether it’s a smoothie or not, well that’s debate-able….but who cares!? Man, this stuff is so good and healthy to boot that I don’t care what you call it.
Pumpkin Pie Smoothie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups milk (homemade almond milk is preferable)
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 2-4 T natural sweetener (agave, maple syrup, turbinado etc…)
Directions:
Combine all your delicious ingredients in a blender and mix until will blended. Enjoy topped with a little pumpkin pie spice, and possibly homemade cool whip if you’re feeling daring! Serves 2-4 and it’s cheaper to make than to buy at the drive-thru!
If you use almond with agave or raw sugar in this recipe, then you’ve got yourself a really healthy vegan pumpkin smoothie….er…shoothie! Have you tried this recipe? Are there any variations that you’ve tried and would recommend to others? Tell us so we can all enjoy the goodness!

Oh wow, this looks so good! I love anything pumpkin. Yum! Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
I’m honestly not even sure how I landed on your blog, but I am so thankful I did! It’s funny, I was elbow deep in the whole couponing thing, just beginning to understand it really, when my boyfriend finally decides to agree with me about going organic. I was somewhat annoyed, to say the least! But I’m slowly learning to incorporate what I’ve learned into buying organic products, and I’m not doing so bad so far. But I think your blog will help me, so I’m looking forward to doing a bit of snooping. Oh, and btw that smoothie looks amazing. I’m so ready for pumpkin season!
Thanks Michele!! So glad that you found me! Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, too.
Hey Crystal! I also LOVE anything pumpkin and FALL! It’s the best! Do you know where I could find the nutritional info on this?
Just a homemade recipe Susie. You can look at the ingredients in what you use. Sorry I can’t be of more help!
What a great recipe! Very apt for a cold and wet January afternoon
I’m presuming the puree is cooked pumpkin?
