Scale
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 medium frozen banana (optional, omit for lower carb)
- 1/2 cup white chocolate hazelnut spread
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Notes
- Frozen Banana: Using a frozen banana adds sweetness and a thicker, creamier texture. If you don’t have a frozen banana, you can use a fresh banana and add a few ice cubes to the blender.
- Lower Carb: For a lower-carb version, omit the banana altogether.
- Variations:
- Add a scoop of protein powder for a protein boost.
- Stir in a tablespoon of chia seeds for extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Drizzle with a little maple syrup or honey for extra sweetness, if desired.
- Storage: This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
