My Sugar Free Year - Day 94

October 17, 2021
Day 94
 
It's a bit chilly this Sunday morning so I’m treating myself to a warm pumpkin spice smoothie with no added sugar!  The cooler weather calls for warmer foods, and even your morning smoothie can be warm. You can used canned pumpkin, or a cooked small sugar pumpkin and use it for all kinds of recipes, including chili. 
 
Here is the recipe:
Serves 1
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 4 minutes
 
Ingredients:
½ cup water
¼ cup rolled oats
½ cup pureed pumpkin, canned
½ tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1 Tbsp almond butter
1 tsp chia seeds
1/3 cup unsweetened almond mil
½ banana
 
Directions:
1.     Add the water and oats to a saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for 4 minutes.  Add the pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Stir to combine. 
2.     Add the pumpkin and oat mixture to a blender along with the remaining ingredients. Blend carefully, allowing space for the heat to escape, until smooth and creamy.
3.     Serve warm and enjoy!
