Pumpkin Protein Shake
Creamy, frosty, and warmly spiced Pumpkin Protein Shakes add a festive fall touch to your daily protein shake. Seasoned with pumpkin pie spice and sweetened with maple syrup, boosting your protein intake has never tasted so good!
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk non-dairy or dairy; I use unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- ⅓ cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 25g scoop protein powder vanilla or unsweetened
- ½ frozen banana
- 1 large handful ice
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to the blender in the order listed.
- Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
- Enjoy immediately!
Notes
- Add ingredients to the blender in the order listed. Add the ingredients in the order listed for smooth blending and the creamiest texture. Liquids should be added first, followed by dry ingredients, solids, and ice.
- Enjoy it fresh. Due to the protein powder, this shake doesn’t store well so it is best enjoyed fresh. The recipe makes two servings, so if you intend to consume only one, halve the recipe.
- Using frozen bananas. Quickly freeze bananas by cutting them into chunks and freezing on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet for 1-2 hours, until frozen through. Don't have bananas frozen in advance? Use fresh bananas and add a few extra ice cubes to create the frosty texture.
