I am always looking for a way to incorporate more vegetables into my toddler’s diet. I came up with this recipe during my quest to make smoothies that tasted great and were really healthy as well. She truly loves this one. You’ll be surprised at what your little one will gobble up with the right mixture. Even if you do not have little ones this is a great morning (or whenever) smoothie.
I have always enjoyed cooking since I was a child. Some of my fondest childhood memories take place in the kitchen preparing meals first with my mother, and then on my own.
Pumpkin pie smoothie recipe, please.
Did the recipe not show up for you somehow? If so here it is
2 cups Pumpkin puree
2/3 cup Vanilla Yogurt
2 tsp Cinnamon
1 Tbs Maple Syrup
1 cup Vanilla Almond or Coconut Milk
Blend till smooth and adjust liquid to your liking. 🙂
Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any tips for beginner blog writers? I’d certainly appreciate it.
Hi Byron
Sorry I did not see your first post. I am flattered you enjoy the site. I do not fancy myself an expert by any means but I will tell you what I have picked up along the way. I am not sure if your blog is food related but if so I try to make things that I like or find interesting or at times I make things I think people I know will like. I enjoy challenging myself with new things. As for the writing my style is just keeping it honest and real. I think when you are just open and yourself it sounds best. It also gives people a sense of feeling they know you and makes your site more interesting aside from just being informative. I would, in classic fashion write what you know and allow people a little peek into your world (whatever you feel comfortable sharing). I hope this helps. 🙂
Take care
Nicole
I really appreciate this post. I have been looking everywhere for this! Thank goodness I found it on Bing. You’ve made my day! Thanks again!
That is wonderful to hear! Thank you. 🙂
Make it dairy free and use almond milk
I agree I love it with the non dairy milk as well. 🙂
Hi! Love your website,it’s wonderful. Where can you find pumpkin puree? I am having a hard time finding it. Need it for a different recipe as well.
Thank you,
Erinn
Hi Erinn
Thank you so much! I was able to find the Libby’s brand Pumpkin puree in my local grocery store. I have seen it at Stop and Shop, ShopRite and I believe Price Chopper. I also spotted it at Walmart. This is the time of year it will be easier to find than you think :). Hope you enjoy the recipe.

Delicious smoothie!! I prefer the nice thick texture – so this is perfect. I didn’t have any Vanilla Almond or Coconut milk and used cow’s milk instead. It does make it less sweet, but with a dollop of whipped cream on top, it’s wonderful. 🙂 Great recipe and thanks for sharing!!
You are very welcome. Thank you for your kind comment. We have lots more coming so please stay tuned. 🙂
