Equipment

Ingredients

½ frozen banana
½ cup probiotic yogurt
½ cup pumpkin puree
½ cup oat milk
½ teaspoon pumpkin spice mix
1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
A handful of walnuts (about 1 tablespoon)
1 tablespoon dried cranberries

Instructions

Take the blender and add all ingredients. Add in ice cubes, if using.
Mix everything on high speed until you get an even smoothie texture.
If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more liquid – milk or water. Blend again until everything is well combined.
Taste the smoothie and add additional sweetener if you like. I recommend using date syrup, raw honey or maple syrup, or stevia. This is totally based on your preference.
Transfer the smoothie into a tall glass.
ADD TOPPINGS (optional): I used chopped walnuts and pepitas. Be creative here and add toppings you like.
Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Makes 1 serving that serves 1 person as a full meal, or 2 servings as a snack/light meal.

As a measure, I used a US cup (240ml). Nutrition values are calculated without toppings.

Substitutions

You can use homemade pumpkin puree or canned.
You can use any type of yogurt here (regular, low-fat, Greek-style), or even kefir. Dairy or non-dairy, they are all fine.
You can use any plant-based milk here except coconut milk. Coconut milk won't work well here. Cow's milk is fine.
Substitute ground flax seeds with hemp seeds or chia seeds.
Substitute walnuts with pecans.
Substitute dried cranberries with raisins or currants.

Make it without banana: Substitute banana with ½ avocado.

Make it protein-packed: Add a scoop of protein powder.

Make it vegan: Use non-dairy products, plant-based milk, and vegan yogurt.

Store in a glass jar with a lid or shaker and keep refrigerated for up to one day. Add more liquid - milk or water, if needed, and shake or stir the smoothie before drinking.
