This is seriously so yummy, pretty darn healthy, and definitely hits a spot for those pumpkin lovers!
Pumpkin Breakfast Smoothie Ingredients
1 cup canned Pumpkin (or fresh pumpkin puree, if you’d rather)
1 Banana
1/2 cup Applesauce
1/2 cup Milk
2 tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice
5 Tbsp. Honey
2 cups Ice (more if you want a thicker smoothie)
Cinnamon for sprinkling, if desired
Whipped topping, if desired
Pumpkin Breakfast Smoothie Directions
Blend all of the ingredients (except Cinnamon and Whipped Topping) in a blender until smooth.
Divide into glasses – about 2 large glasses, or more smaller ones (for the kids)
Put some Whipped Topping and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top, if desired. Enjoy!!!
If you follow me on Instagram, I posted a photo of Flash enjoying this smoothie two weeks ago 😀

(Stopping by Think Pink link up party!)
Danielle Reeves says
October 7, 2013 at 1:39 amThanks, Amber! Pumpkin is totally yummy, right? Do you enjoy it year-round, or mostly fall/holiday time?

October 7, 2013 at 9:27 pmDanielle, I’d love this healthy smoothie in the morning! I stopped by from Little Miss Celebrations’ link party. Have a nice day!
Danielle Reeves says
October 21, 2013 at 3:36 pmThanks so much for the visit, Joan! Ya, this smoothie is such a great morning boost 😀

October 8, 2013 at 3:24 amYum! My husband saw pumpkin on sale the other day at the supermarket & I’d love to buy a few cans to try this, among other festive recipes. I know I could just use the similar squash I’ve got from the farmer’s market, but it’s so much work to make pumpkin silky smooth from scratch.
Danielle Reeves says
October 21, 2013 at 3:39 pmI totally agree – as much as I’d like to do stuff from scratch more often, pumpkin is just a bit too much for me LOL
Cindy Jamieson says

October 12, 2013 at 11:29 amwow! That sounds SO good!! Next time I have pumpkin puree I will have to try. My boys will eat pretty much anything in a smoothie :o) I’m thinking vanilla yogurt would be good in this too… maybe I’ll swap out the apple sauce! thanks for the inspiration! You’ve been featured today at Nap-Time Creations!!! I’ve shared it on all my social media… please feel free to reshare or tweet :o) thanks for linking up to Tasteful Tuesdays! Emily
Danielle Reeves says

March 16, 2014 at 1:12 pmI just tried this and I love it! I switched the applesauce with french vanilla yogurt; it was delicious! I’ll definitely be making this again.
Danielle says
March 16, 2014 at 4:17 pmI’m so glad you loved it! Oooh…I’m going to try that switch next time, thanks so much for sharing!
Margaret Anne @ Natural Chow says
September 20, 2014 at 2:43 pmOKay, this looks insanely delicious. I haven’t always been a smoothie person, but this looks so good I may have to give it a try. Thanks for the awesome recipe!
Danielle says
September 20, 2014 at 6:27 pmThanks, Margaret! I’ve always loved smoothies (my dad makes them on a daily basis, so maybe growing up with that had something to do with it), and this is a really nice twist! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do 😀
Kelsey says
September 21, 2014 at 2:11 amThis looks delicious! I added up the calories and it’s only 307 calories per serving (using almond milk, not counting whipped cream). Definitely making this 😀
Danielle says
September 21, 2014 at 4:14 pmOooh, that’s great to know, thank you! I’ll take that as a reason to make this more often LOL 😉
Heidi G says

Shannon c says
September 22, 2014 at 1:14 pmI am a lover of all things pumpkin! We wanted to try something new besides muffins and I found this recipe on Pinterest. Definitely a keeper! My one and three year old loved it!! Only change I made was I used unsweetened almond milk.
Danielle says
September 23, 2014 at 9:51 amI’m so glad y’all enjoyed it so much! Ya, I think that almond milk would be a great, also…perhaps I’ll give that change a try next time we make it! Hope you have a great week!

November 26, 2014 at 12:20 pmI’ve made this recipe a couple times now and it is AWESOME! So I featured this post in a Thanksgiving round-up today. I hope you don’t mind!
Danielle says
December 5, 2014 at 8:16 amOh I’m thrilled you love it so much, Chelsey! And THANK YOU for featuring it, I really appreciate the sharing 😀 Happy Holidays!

March 2, 2015 at 8:56 pmThis looks so tasty! I might have to make it for breakfast in the morning. My girls love smoothies, but I run out of ideas.
Danielle says
March 3, 2015 at 11:10 amI’m right there with you – smoothies are great, but you don’t want the same ones all the time! I hope ya’ll love this one as much as we do!
