Serves: 2 cups, 1 serving

This smoothie is creamy and light. Not only will it add extra fiber to your day, but having pumpkin in the morning will keep you fuller, longer!

Ingredients

1 cup non-dairy milk - I used unsweetened almond milk
½ cup canned pumpkin
½ banana
1 tablespoon raisins or ½ teaspoon maple syrup
½ teaspoon gluten-free, alcohol-free pure vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
pinch ground nutmeg
pinch ground cloves
pinch all spice
vegan coconut whipped topping - I used 2 tablespoon honey and omitted the vanilla in this batch (optional)

Instructions

Place everything but whipped topping in the blender.
Blend until smooth
Pour into your favorite glass and place a couple tablespoons of coconut whipped cream on top.
Sprinkle with cinnamon if you'd like!

Notes

Sweetness - this smoothie is not overly sweet. If you would like to sweeten, add maple syrup instead of the raisins. Or use sweetened non-dairy milk.
