As you already know, I love fall. I go a little overboard with decorating and baked goods when it comes to fall since we here in South Florida don't really experience an actual weather change. We are big smoothie drinkers in our home so of course, when Fall comes around, I change our smoothie flavorings up. Enter pumpkin everything and that will translate to this Pumpkin Pie Smoothie!!
A pumpkin pie smoothie is heaven in a mason jar! It look like Fall, smells like Fall and tastes like Fall! Who could ask for anything better!
Like I mentioned before, we love smoothies in our home. It's a great way to get in some of your required fruit and vegetable servings. A big factor in a delicious smoothie is a good quality protein powder! We recently discovered OLLY Protein Blends and they have really upped our smoothie game! OLLY protein is plant-based protein and contains flavor-packed nutrition that is vegan and gluten-free!
OLLY Smoothie powders are delicious on their own but are also a delicious base to your favorite smoothie! I used the vanilla is our pumpkin pie smoothies!
