Healthy Smoothie Recipes with Pumpkin

Jump To RecipePin Recipe

With the arrival of Pumpkin Season officially upon us, surely you must be in the mood for something “pumpkin-y”? If you are anything like me, then healthy smoothie recipes that are made with pumpkin are probably not what first comes to mind. Instead, I am guessing you probably are thinking more along the lines of rich, sweet and creamy pumpkin pie?

Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing at all against pumpkin pie (in fact, I have two different pumpkin pie recipes on our website here: Persimmon Pumpkin Pie with Coconut Crust and here: Dairy-Free/ Gluten-Free Pumpkin Pie). But this year, instead of making your first “pumpkin-y” treat of the year a slice of pumpkin pie, why not try something super healthy that has zero added sugar, no dairy and just so happens to taste very much like liquid pumpkin pie (this is especially true of smoothie #1 below…)

The healthy smoothie recipes take just minutes to make and they are guaranteed to satisfy a pumpkin pie filling any time this season.
