If you love pumpkin spice and coffee, this smoothie is about to be your new best friend.
It’s creamy, packed with warm fall flavors, and gives you a nice caffeine boost—basically, a pumpkin spice latte in smoothie form!
Perfect for busy mornings, an afternoon pick-me-up, or whenever you need a cozy, delicious treat.
Plus, it’s super easy to make!
What You’ll Need
- 1 cup brewed coffee (cooled)
- ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- ½ cup pumpkin purée (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
- ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ tsp cinnamon (plus more for topping)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup ice cubes
Pro Tips
✅ Use frozen banana for extra creaminess—it makes the smoothie thick and cold without needing too much ice.
✅ Let the coffee cool before blending, or it’ll melt the ice and thin out the smoothie.
✅ Adjust sweetness to your taste—add more maple syrup if you like it sweeter.
✅ Want it extra thick? Add a little Greek yogurt or an extra banana.
✅ Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon for that coffee-shop vibe!
Tools You’ll Need
- Blender
- Measuring cups & spoons
- A tall glass for serving
Substitutions & Variations
✨ No banana? Use ½ cup Greek yogurt or extra ice for thickness.
✨ No coffee? Swap for cold brew or even strong brewed chai tea for a caffeine-free twist.
✨ Dairy-free? Use almond, oat, or coconut milk.
✨ Extra protein? Add a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder.
Make-Ahead Tips
- Brew your coffee the night before and store it in the fridge for quick prep.
- Pre-measure ingredients and freeze them in smoothie bags for grab-and-blend mornings!
How to Make It
1. Brew & Cool the Coffee
Let your coffee cool completely before using. You can even chill it in the fridge for an iced coffee effect.
2. Add Everything to the Blender
Pour the cooled coffee, milk, pumpkin purée, frozen banana, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and ice cubes into the blender.
3. Blend Until Smooth
Blend on high until creamy and smooth, about 30-60 seconds. If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk.
4. Pour & Serve
Pour into a tall glass, top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon, and enjoy!
Leftovers & Storage
- Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 1 day—just shake before drinking!
- Freeze in an ice cube tray for a quick pumpkin spice smoothie next time—just re-blend with a little milk!
