  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 12 pitted Medjool dates, for sweetness
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1 scoop protein powder
  • Optional: Ice cubes, if a thicker smoothie is desired

Instructions

  1. Combine almond milk, pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, dates, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract in a blender.

  • For a dairy-free version, use a dairy-free yogurt alternative and ensure your almond milk is unsweetened.
  • Adjust the number of dates based on your desired sweetness.
