Pumpkin Apple Smoothie

Although its spooky season, let’s be honest, there’s nothing scary about this Pumpkin Apple Smoothie. If anything, its creepily delicious! The flavours of pumpkin and apple go together beautifully, highlighted by the pumpkin pie spice, and will keep you full for hours.  

We recommend that you make a batch of the pumpkin pie spice so that you have it on hand for your next smoothie, or any other recipes you may be making. Super easy to make and handy too. Enjoy!
