Pumpkin Blueberry Smoothie
Makes 2 servings
This smoothie evolved from a small amount of pumpkin purée I had left over after baking! The result was this exotic drink made with cashew butter and a frozen banana for enhanced creaminess, topped with a dusting of pumpkin pie spice for added flavor. It’s also packed with antioxidants, making it one of the healthiest ways to end a dinner.

½ frozen banana
2 tablespoons pumpkin purée
1 tablespoon cashew butter
½ tablespoon flax seed
½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
INSTRUCTIONS
