Homemade Pumpkin Smoothies
Pumpkin Smoothie
5 oz (the small can) evaporated milk
1/2 cup pumpkin
1 1/2 cups vanilla yogurt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tsp brown sugar
2 gingersnap cookies
1/2 frozen banana, sliced
6-ish ice cubes
Put ingredients in a blender in order listed. Blend.
About this smoothie:
I'll admit it. No smoothie will ever live up to my love for the Pumpkin Smash from Jamba Juice. However, I can't afford to indulge in that as often as I would like, so every year I try a few homemade pumpkin smoothies. You can definitely taste the frozen banana in here. While I love the texture that it adds, I am not sure I love the taste it adds. Pumpkin banana- not the new best combo.
That being said, it was good enough that I would probably make it again.

Now this sounds yummy. I think I have everything on hand to try this in the morning!
ReplyDeleteI tried making this and it was sooooo yum! I never follow recipes very well, so I didn't do it exactly the same. (I used regular milk, maple syrup instead of sugar, no cookies, and didn't measure anything...) My kids didn't like it, but I didn't expect them to. I agree with your banana observations, but I loved it!
