I bought 4 pumpkins and now I’m making and baking lots of dishes with them. This can happen when we go to pick our own to get more than planned because they all look so cute and delicious.
I’ve wash and cut a big pumpkin in cubes and I’ve roasted it in the oven at medium heat for 60 – 70 minutes. The roasted pumpkin will keep for a few days in the fridge. This allowed me to make my smoothies with roasted pumpkin these last three days.

I used bananas as the second fruit in all the smoothies because I like them. Just the Spiced Apple smoothie is vegan, but you can make vegan smoothies if you switch the milk with water and honey with a vegan sweetener.

To prepare the smoothies, put all the ingredients in a blender and whizz until is smooth. I would suggest tasting the smoothie and adding more sweetener or spices.

3 Autumn smoothies – Ingredients for 2 Spiced Apple smoothies:

– 500ml apple juice
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 1/2 tsp nutmeg
– 1 tsp Chia seeds

3 Autumn smoothies – Ingredients for 2 Chai tea smoothies:

– 2 bananas
– 120g roasted pumpkin
– 500ml Chai tea
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 1 tsp cardamom
– 1 tsp Chia seeds

Make the tea a couple of hours before you want to make the smoothie, as it needs time to cool down. If you are in a hurry, just add a couple of ice cubes to cool it fast. Make the Chai tea with a few bags of tea, so the flavour is stronger and comes through the smoothie.

Do you like Autumn smoothies? Are there any flavours you are thinking of trying? I would love to hear more ideas and maybe try a few of them.
