Recipe Tips
Frozen banana: I recommend you always have some frozen bananas on hand, that way you can make all sorts of awesome smoothies. Whenever you have ripe bananas on hand, peel them, break them into quarters and freeze them in a freezer bag. That way you are always set for any smoothie craving that comes your way.
And if you’re not a huge banana fan, never fear! You really can’t taste the banana flavor once it’s blended with other flavors. Frozen bananas just add the most wonderful texture and base to a smoothie.
Pumpkin Pie Spice: If you don’t have a store-bought pumpkin pie spice blend then you can make up your own using our homemade pumpkin pie spice recipe.
Almond Milk: We used almond milk in this smoothie but any non-dairy milk will work fine. If you’re using coconut milk then a low fat/light version tends to work better otherwise the smoothie can be too thick.
Pumpkin Purée: You can use any pumpkin purée in this recipe, canned or fresh.
Almond Butter: The flavor of almond butter complements this smoothie perfectly! But feel free to substitute any other nut butter of your choice.

Fantastic recipe!! 😍
Thanks Gemma!
This was delicious. I didn’t have almond butter and thought peanut butter might be a little too peanuty, so I used the sunbutter we keep for allergy-free sandwiches for my son’s school and it was perfect. I cut back the maple syrup to 2 TB because the sun butter is sweetened a little bit. My 5-year old loves it and so do I!
Awesome! So glad you enjoyed it Erin! 🙂
I really enjoyed this even though Im not a fan of pumpkin. Haha I love food and I’ll try any recipe that gets good reviews or just sounds like a good combination. Plus Ive made tons of your recipes and they’re always solid! So in short…delicious! Perfectly light. Thanks again.
Hi Courtney, I love the open mindedness to try different things when it comes to food. So glad you enjoyed it even though you’re not usually a fan of pumpkin! Thanks for sharing and the wonderful review.
Well, a very healthy and delicious drink with the perfect blend of flavours! Just loved it!
Thanks Anna!
Hi, do you think this can be frozen for later? I want to take some to someone who is sick. Thanks!
Hi Meggie, sorry no I don’t think it would freeze well.
Fantastic! I added some Medjool dates and pecans. Delish! Thanks so much for this recipe!
Awesome! Thanks Enya!
Oh my goodness! I fully expected the bananas to overtake this smoothie (as they have a tendency to do) but this tastes just like pumpkin pie! I used oat milk and added in a small handful of rolled oats to make it a bit more filling for breakfast. So good!
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the awesome review Savannah! 🙂
So so good, and a seasonally perfect addition to my smoothie rotation. I just added a generous pinch of salt (for balance) and a TBSP of toasted whole flaxseed (for substance, almost like crispy bits of pie crust). Thanks!
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the awesome review Danielle! 🙂
Loving it Vegan for the win! My husband and I went to the pumpkin patch over the weekend and scored a massive pumpkin. We were at a loss as far as what to do with SO MUCH PUMPKIN! Lucky for us we also scored a great deal on bananas at the grocery store, too. This smoothie really hit the spot (and used up some of our excess produce!) We both love making smoothies any time of year. For us it is a great way to get all our fruits and veggies in a delicious way. My husband prefers to eat vegan, and he also juices and drinks smoothies for weight loss. He is always on the hunt for new recipes to try, so we are so glad we found this festive fall recipe. Four thumbs up from us. Thanks again!
Super yummy! This is very good during any season for anyone! I’ve tried other recipes that weren’t vegan but this one the best hands down! Thanks!
So happy to hear that Kel! Thanks a million for the wonderful review. xo
Delicious smoothie. Tweaked it to ingredients on hand, of course; but discovered maple syrup as a sweetener. Yummy!
Perfect! Thanks for posting! 🙂
Just a little bit too sweet for me but I’ll put in less maple syrup next time and it will be perfect! PS But extra creamy, I love it
Cool! Thanks for sharing Sophie! 🙂
Yum!! Pumpkin pie without all the hassle sounds amazing.
Perfect pumpkin pie smoothie – love it, thank you 😉
