An easy Pumpkin Protein Shake recipe made with pumpkin puree, protein powder, cinnamon, stevia, banana, and almond milk. This Pumpkin Protein Shake makes the perfect fall breakfast or snack, loaded with healthy pumpkin puree and muscle-building protein powder.
Pumpkins are rich in carotenoids, which are the compounds responsible for giving them their beautiful, bright orange color. One of these compounds, beta carotene is converted into a form of vitamin A in the body, which is good to keep your skin and peepers healthy. They are also a good source of dietary fiber.

- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 scoop unflavored or vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla stevia drops or 1 packet granulated stevia
- 1/4 cup ice
- 1/2 frozen banana
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
- Add all ingredients into a blender
