Pumpkin Pie Smoothie


Ok, I realize it's May but I love fall, I am already so excited for October and the other day was rainy so I decided to make the kids and myself a little pumpkin pie smoothie. I sort of winged it, I usually draw inspiration from other recipes but this was all random and it came out great! The kids loved it too, It makes about 3 servings each is about 219 calories, would make a great lunch or breakfast. I have a Vitamix so this texture was perfect I'm curious how other blenders handle it...

1 Banana
3/4 can of organic pumpkin puree
1/2 can full fat coconut milk
2 Tbsp. organic agave
1/2 Tbsp. cinnnamon
1/8 Tsp. nutmeg
1/8 Tsp. cloves
10 or so ice cubes

Blend until smooth. Lots of electrolytes, vitamins, good fats, nutrients and the spices are very healthy too! This smoothie is filling and satisfied my sweet tooth without much added sugar so win-win!
