Directions
Spoon the pumpkin puree into a resealable bag and pop it in the freezer for at least 8 hours, or overnight if you can. When you’re ready to make the smoothie, take the pumpkin out and let it sit at room temperature for about 5 to 10 minutes so it softens a bit. Next, pour the milk into your blender, then add the pumpkin, banana, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Blend everything together until it’s nice and smooth, which should take around 3 minutes. Pour into a glass and enjoy!
Serving Variations
Serve chilled in a tall glass with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg on top. It pairs well with granola or a handful of nuts for added crunch and protein.
Storing Food Safely
Smoothies are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir well before drinking, as some separation may occur.
