Ever since I found the Silk Iced Latte at my local grocery store, I’ve been thinking about different ways to use it. Of course, it’s delicious mixed with iced coffee, which is how I usually drink it, but I knew it would also taste amazing as part of a smoothie.
Introducing the Pumpkin Spice Latte Protein Smoothie!
Ooh yes, I took the Pumpkin Spice Latte obsession to a whole new level. Now you can enjoy this fall favorite in a cold, creamy, and protein-packed smoothie””and it only requires four ingredients. I love recipes like that! ENJOY!
Pumpkin Spice Latte Protein Smoothie
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Silk Vanilla Iced Latte
- 3/4 cup frozen canned pumpkin*
- 2 tbsp vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Directions: Combine above ingredients in blender until smooth. Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon (optional).
Makes one 16-ounce serving
*For the frozen canned pumpkin, I measured out 3/4 cup and placed it inside some plastic wrap and then inside a bowl, which I stuck in the freezer overnight. It ended up forming a hard pumpkin puck, which my blender handled, no problem, but if you have a wussy blender, I recommend freezing it in smaller (1/4 cup) batches.
