Thick and creamy Pumpkin Smoothie Bowl made with healthy ingredients and classic pumpkin flavors!
There are some food-related things that you will likely never hear me say.
"It's too cold out for smoothies."
"I'm not in the mood for chocolate."
"This hummus tastes weird."
"I can't wait to clean the kitchen!"
"Do you need a hand with those groceries?"
Let's get back to the first one. The temperature is slowly but surely starting to drop. We're trading in our flowy-flowery-fun summer dresses for cozy flannels, ripped jeans, and brown booties. Can you tell I have shopping on the brain?
We're leaving our smoothies in the dust and giving a warm welcome to the glory that is oatmeal. We're brunching on eggs and toast and pancakes and hot things that warm us from the inside out.
Smoothies are summer food. Right? Ehh. This girl says otherwise. I'm never not in the mood for a smoothie. They're like liquid courage.
My body associates waking up with a smoothie. Brush teeth, wash face, put contacts in, get dressed, make smoothie.
Not always in that order.
We can still be seasonal here! Scoot on over pineapple. Ever heard of an apple smoothie? I know you're all about the Pumpkin Pie Smoothie. Now let's thicken 'er up and call it a smoothie bowl! Because smoothies taste best when thickened and eaten with a spoon.
Looking for the magical smoothie bowl formula? Less milk. A bit more frozen fruit. We're all shocked right now.
Don't forget the superfood toppings galore. Consider the smoothie the "mylk" to the "cereal" toppings. That's my kind of cereal!
My go-to toppings are cacao nibs, puffed quinoa, or Love-Grown Power O's. Try fruit, granola, nuts, coconut, or anything else edible that suits your fancy. And yes, you can most definitely add spinach to your smoothie bowl.
Can I just say that I think this would be BEYONDDDD with a crumbled Pumpkin Bar on top? Oh my god.

"Because smoothies taste best when thickened and eaten with a spoon." <-- AMEN! But I may be slightly biased 😉 And I drink smoothies in the middle of winter while sitting by the fireplace with a hoodie on. No shame.

I've been all about eggs recently for breakfast, but seeing all of these pumpkin smoothie recipes makes me want to whip out my blender again!! I've never actually tried making a smoothie with pumpkin, which sounds like blasphemy!

I'll never ditch my smoothies due to cold weather - and this one looks absolutely delicious!
You'll also never hear me say something like, "That's ok, I've had enough peanut butter," or "it's too early for wine." 🙂

I was jusssst heading into the cyber world for some pumpkin smoothie inspiration, and bam, here you are. I definitely don't gravitate towards smoothies once the weather cools down, but if its pumpkin pie.. I'll just grab a blanket. Thanks!

I haven't had a craving for pumpkin, but I have been devouring squash and sweet potatoes like it is my job. Smoothies all year round for sure, no matter how cold it is...XOXO
Alexis says

Smoothies with a spoon > smoothies with a straw! And there is no such thing as non smoothie season.

I must admit I haven't tried a smoothie bowl yet (I know, I know) but in my defense, I generally drink my smoothies in the car on the way to work. THIS bowl though...I may have to rethink my mornings...the pumpkin, the spices, the toppings, the pumpkin! ;)-

I feel the same way about ice cream, I can eat it year round! But I also enjoy smoothies year round too. I definitely need to add this one to the list.

Hahaha I've been known to consume smoothies in the winter while wrapped up in a blanket with my butt parked in front of the space heater. What can I say? I can't give up my smoothies 😉
I like your fall twist on this one! It looks awesome!
