How to Make a Pumpkin Smoothie Bowl:

For this pumpkin spice smoothie bowl, I mixed a cup of pureed pumpkin, a cup of unsweetened almond milk, 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder and half a frozen banana in my blender – you can add a splash more milk or a few more sliced pieces of frozen banana to control the consistency.  I like to use banana because it adds thickness to the smoothie bowl without overpowering the pumpkin spice flavor.  Pour into a large bowl (or two small bowls) and pop into the freezer to firm up a bit while you chop up a peeled dragon fruit – I love that black and white center.  When you’re done chopping the fruit, remove the pumpkin smoothie bowl and dress with blackberries and the peeled dragon fruit.  I also sprinkled on some unsweetened shredded coconut and chia seeds for even more contrast and texture.

A Pyrex bowl in turquoise Butterprint is a must for serving this pumpkin smoothie bowl – it has the perfect autumnal design and turquoise just makes food taste better.  That’s a scientific fact – you can Google it 😉  Bonus points for also wearing the matching Butterprint Pyrex t-shirt.

I’ve said it before, but I just love the prettiness of smoothie bowls and the convenience of smoothies in general.  Plus you can add any frozen fruits/veggies you wish – this is a great way to hide some carrots or spinach.  The latter might ruin the bright orange hue for this particular pumpkin spice smoothie bowl, but when I’m not worried about the look I often use smoothies and smoothie bowls for sneaking in some extra vegetables.

How to Make a Smoothie Bowl Thick:

Smoothies and smoothie bowls are all about the ratio of frozen ingredients to liquid.  I use frozen fruit instead of ice, so if your smoothie or smoothie bowl isn’t thick enough – add more frozen fruit! Too much liquid will create a smoothie that’s too runny.  You can also use yogurt to add some substance but a dense, frozen fruit thickens it up best.

Well, I think that’s probably my last smoothie or smoothie bowl recipe until spring!  Although we typically love smoothies and smoothie bowls all year long, this year they’re predicting a winter with TONS of snow, so I think it’s time for me to start sharing some warm and cozy foods to enjoy, curled up by a fire.  Time to get my Hygge on and shift towards creating some toastier breakfast and brunch ideas for us to keep warm.

Have a Happy Halloween!
