Ingredients

  • 1 coop pumpkin or vanilla protein powder (32g)
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (180g) or milk of choice
  • 200 g Ice cubes about 2 cups
  • 1/4 cup vanilla ice cream (60g) I used Edy's Slow Churned French Vanilla
  • 1/4 cup canned pumpkin (60g)
  • 1/4 tsp each: pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp xanthan gum optional for thicker shake
  • 1/8 tsp liquid stevia or 1 Tbsp granular sweetener of choice or to taste
  • 1 sheet cinnamon graham cracker divided

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add all the ingredients (except the graham cracker) to your blender. Blend until smooth. I used a Ninja IQ for this. If using another blender, just make sure it is one that is powerful enough to crush the ice!
  2. Taste the milkshake. If it needs more sweetness, add more stevia. If it needs to be thinner, add more milk. If it needs to be thicker, add 2-3 ice cubes. Blend again until desired consistency is reached.
  3. Add half of your graham cracker sheet and pulse just a few times. You don't want to break the cracker up completely.
  4. Transfer to a large glass or bowl (room for more toppings!) Top with remaining half of graham cracker, crumbled up. Add anything else that sounds good and sip up!
  5. My favorite go-to toppings: cool whip and a little caramel sauce drizzle!

Notes

  • To make gluten-free: use gluten-free graham crackers.
  • To make dairy-free: use dairy-free milk, dairy-free ice cream and dairy-free protein powder.
