- Start by gathering all your ingredients. Ensure you have the peanut butter, pumpkin pie filling, vanilla protein powder (if using), and nonfat milk or nondairy milk ready to go. The key to a great smoothie is in the freshness of your ingredients.
- Add the peanut butter to your blender. This will be the base of your smoothie, providing that creamy texture and rich flavor.
- Next, measure out 3/4 cup of pumpkin pie filling and add it to the blender. This ingredient not only adds sweetness but also contributes to the beautiful orange hue of your smoothie.
- If you’re opting to include vanilla protein powder, add 2 tablespoons now. This step is optional but can give your smoothie an extra boost of protein.
- Pour in 2 cups of nonfat milk or nondairy milk. The milk is crucial for achieving that perfect smoothie consistency. You can adjust the amount based on how thick or thin you want your smoothie.
- Now, it’s time to blend! Secure the lid on your blender and blend the ingredients on high speed. Watch as they transform into a creamy, smooth concoction. It should take about 30 seconds to a minute.
- If you find that your smoothie is too thick, feel free to add more milk gradually until you reach your desired consistency. It’s all about personal preference!
- Taste your smoothie. If you’d like it sweeter, consider adding a touch of honey or your favorite sweetener. You can also sprinkle in a little pumpkin pie spice if you’re feeling adventurous.
- Once you’re satisfied with the flavor and texture, pour the Pumpkin Peanut Butter Smoothie into a glass. You can even serve it with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top for the perfect finishing touch!
