This delicious recipe comes to us from Faith at An Edible Mosaic
Reminiscent of pumpkin, this butternut smoothie mimics my favorite pumpkin pie soft serve ice cream. This breakfast (or dessert!) treat is so thick and creamy that you may want to use a spoon to eat it when it’s first made. If you prefer your smoothies on the thinner side, you can either let it melt a little or decrease the butternut to 1 cup or increase the milk to 3/4 cup.
Add all ingredients to a blender (a high-power blender works well here), and process until smooth, tamping down as necessary.
Pour into a serving glass, top with anything you like, and serve.
Yum!
Delicious! I used chilled canned pumpkin in place of the frozen squash as I had some that I needed to use up. The sweetness and spices are just right for my tastes, not too sweet but still sweet enough to feel like a special treat. Great recipe!
Thanks, Johanna. Faith’s recipes are always so lovely. Glad you like it!
