Pumpkin Spice Breakfast Smoothie

Pumpkin purée, banana and warm spices make an autumn-inspired smoothie without requiring a portable blender to process raw pumpkin. Use cooked, cooled, unsweetened pumpkin purée.

Ingredients

Method

1. Use prepared pumpkin purée that has been cooked and fully cooled. Never place raw hard pumpkin cubes into a small portable blender for this recipe.
2. Pour the milk into the bottle, then add pumpkin purée, banana slices and yogurt.
3. Add the spices sparingly, check the safe fill mark and blend according to the manual.
4. Taste, adjust seasoning in a separate cup if needed and serve chilled.

Make it your own: Read the tin label: unsweetened pumpkin purée is different from sweetened pumpkin pie filling. The cinnamon provides warmth without requiring heated liquids.

Portable blender notes

Ingredient volumes and density vary. Adjust the quantities downward if necessary for your specific appliance and never exceed its working fill line. Add suitable cold liquid first, prepare fruit into small pieces and check the frozen-fruit and ice precautions before making substitutions. Do not force stalled blades. Follow the Smothie manual for model-specific guidance.
