Pumpkin Gingerbread Smoothie (Printer-Friendly)

Sweet and spiced holiday blend with pumpkin, ginger, and banana for a creamy, festive drink.

# What You’ll Need to Cook:

01 - 1 cup canned pumpkin puree

02 - 1 frozen banana

03 - 1 tablespoon molasses

04 - 1 teaspoon ground ginger

05 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

06 - 1 scoop vegan vanilla protein powder

07 - 1 1/4 cups unsweetened almond milk

01 - Pour almond milk into the blender as the base to ensure even blending.

02 - Add pumpkin, frozen banana, molasses, ginger, cinnamon, and protein powder into the blender.

03 - Start blending on low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend until smooth and creamy.

04 - If a thinner texture is desired, add more almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time and blend briefly.

05 - Pour into a glass or jar and serve chilled. Optionally, enjoy with a spoon or straw.

01 - Replace banana with frozen peach slices for a different sweetness profile or to avoid banana flavor.

02 - Add up to 1 cup of frozen cauliflower or zucchini for a thicker and more voluminous smoothie.

03 - For a dessert-style touch, top with blended dates, oats, molasses, and a pinch of salt.
