Ingredients
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree (89 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (2 grams)
- 4 to 5 soft Medjool dates , pitted (about 75 grams)
- 2 tablespoons hemp hearts (optional; 18 grams)
- 3/4 cup almond milk (156 grams)
- 5 large ice cubes (174 grams)
Instructions
- Combine the pumpkin, spice, dates, hemp hearts (if using), and almond milk in the blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- Add in the ice, and blend again until the smoothie has a slushy texture. Serve right away for the best taste and texture.
- Leftover smoothie can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but the texture will be very runny.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- If you would rather sweeten this smoothie with a banana instead of dates, I recommend using a frozen one. (Here's how to freeze bananas.) You'll also need to add maple syrup to taste, in that case, to boost the pie flavor.
- Alternatively, you can use only maple syrup to sweeten this smoothie. My guess is that you'll need 1 to 2 tablespoons total. You can add extra ice to thicken the smoothie, as needed, in this case.
