Pumpkin Smoothie – Recipes Notes:
- You can achieve the best results by using a high speed blender for this pumpkin smoothie. I used my Vitamix and it came out super creamy and silky.
- I tried this recipe with homemade pumpkin puree as well as canned pumpkin puree. It didn’t surprise me that the one with homemade puree was much better! Usually, I just make a big batch in my Instant Pot and freeze it for later. Just let it sit on the counter overnight or for at least a few hours to defrost. You could also add it to the blender when it’s still frozen. However, this way your pumpkin smoothie will have a different texture and you also don’t have to add ice cubes. Check out these step-by-step instructions for making homemade pumpkin puree if you haven’t made it before.
- I listed the spices for this pumpkin smoothie (ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves) separately. If you want you could, however, also just use store-bought pumpkin spice.
- If you want this smoothie to be more refreshing, you can use a frozen banana instead of one at room temperature.

What a delicious smoothie recipe Sina! I’ve never tried a pumpkin pie flavoured smoothie before, that’s such a great idea. I love how healthy it is too, and that it’s sweetened with dates and bananas. Yummy!
Thanks, Harriet! :-) I love pumpkin pie, but this is so much easier and also healthier!!
I love the idea of lazy liquid pumpkin pie. I have a busy day planned tomorrow and I think this is the perfect treat for my afternoon down time.

The perfect pumpkin sip! And i even have all the ingredients in my kitchen right now! My smoothie addiction is intense right now too, I need to make them more interesting and fall flavored. Lately I’ve been doing one green smoothie and one more decadent smoothie a day, so I will have to toss this one in the mix :)
So glad you like it, Natalie! :-) I’m usually only making green smoothies, but this is so great for a change! I really need to try more flavors! Let me know if you give it a try. ;-)

What would Fall be without a pumpkin pie smoothie!? :)
I don’t even wanna think about it, Rebecca! ;-)
liquid pumpkin pie … that’s the best description I’ve ever heard of a smoothie!
fall in my neck of the woods is either cold and dreary or cold and brilliant. not much middle ground.
Haha! It really tastes like liquid pumpkin pie. It’s just a lot easier to make! ;-) Right now it’s more like cold and dreary, haven’t seen the sun in quite a while…
Can’t wait to try it. looks like it’s really healthy.
