Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

I’m a little ashamed to admit I *haven’t* had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the year. Yes, I love them (usually with oat milk, no whip and half the syrup, please) and no, I’m not ashamed to admit it. And while I haven’t been able to enjoy a PSL at home, I have been sipping on this amazing Pumpkin Pie Smoothie on the regular.

Packed with pumpkin, protein, a bit of peanut butter (optional, but the extra fat really improves the overall flavor IMO, and a scrumptious blend of vanilla and cinnamon, it’s incredibly addicting and a great transition from warmer temps to cooler ones.
