This dairy free, vegan pumpkin pie smoothie is thick, creamy, and full of warm fall spice. It's made with pumpkin puree, banana, almond milk, and a touch of maple syrup. It comes together in the blender in just 5 minutes, and it is a great way to use up the rest of a can of pumpkin puree after a recipe that only calls for part of it.
I love having this recipe on hand during pumpkin season since it tastes like a treat but works just as well for a quick breakfast.
The combination of frozen banana and almond butter gives it a rich, milkshake like texture, and the cinnamon and ginger bring in all the flavor of a classic pumpkin pie without any of the baking.
It is gluten free, dairy free, vegan, and just as good for breakfast as it is for an afternoon snack.

Ways To Customize This Smoothie
- Swap the almond milk for oat, coconut, or cashew milk depending on what you have on hand
- Add a tablespoon of rolled oats for a heartier, more filling smoothie
- Stir in a scoop of vanilla protein powder for a breakfast with more staying power
- Add a shot of espresso for a pumpkin spice latte flavored version
Topping Ideas
Top your smoothie with a sprinkle of granola, a dusting of cinnamon, or a spoonful of coconut whipped cream for something a little more dessert like. For a smoothie bowl version, use less almond milk to keep it thick, pour it into a bowl, and add your toppings on top instead of blending them in.
Storage
This smoothie is best when made fresh and enjoyed immediately.
You can put the bananas, ice, pumpkin and sun butter in a freezer safe container together so it's quicker to put this smoothie together with the rest of the ingredients.
Top Tip
Freeze your bananas ahead of time. A frozen banana is what gives this smoothie its thick, milkshake like texture, so a fresh banana with extra ice just won't get you the same result.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pumpkin is high in fiber and has potassium, iron and beta carotene. It is a healthy addition to fall recipes.
Pumpkin puree is simply pumpkin without any added ingredients. Pumpkin pie filling has added spices and is usually sweetened.
Any plant based milk works well here. Oat milk, coconut milk, and cashew milk are all good substitutes if you don't have almond milk on hand or prefer a different flavor.
