Pumpkin Spice Coconut Smoothie for Full GAPS

This pumpkin spice coconut smoothie is thick, creamy, and gently sweet from clementine and cooked butternut squash. Homemade coconut milk and a raw egg yolk give it body without dairy, while vanilla and pumpkin pie spice make the glass taste like a cold autumn treat.

I like this when there is a small amount of cooked squash left from another meal. Four or five tablespoons disappear into one quick drink, and the clementine keeps the flavor bright rather than heavy.

Where This Smoothie Fits On GAPS

This recipe fits Full GAPS. Use homemade coconut milk, cooked butternut squash, a raw egg yolk, and homemade GAPS vanilla. The fruit is whole clementine rather than bottled juice.

Cool The Butternut Squash First

Use smooth cooked squash puree that has cooled completely. Warm squash melts the two ice cubes immediately and makes the finished drink thin. Measure four tablespoons for a lighter squash flavor or five for a thicker, deeper orange smoothie.

Load The Ninja Pitcher

Add three-quarters cup coconut milk first, followed by the squash puree, raw egg yolk, one teaspoon vanilla, one peeled clementine in sections, two ice cubes, and a pinch of pure pumpkin pie spice.

Blend Until No Pieces Remain

Blend on HIGH for thirty seconds, then look through the pitcher. Continue only if you can still see citrus membrane or squash pieces. The finished smoothie should form a thick creamy vortex and look evenly pumpkin-orange from top to bottom.

Pour immediately. The texture should be thick enough to hold a soft swirl at the top while remaining drinkable.

Serving And Storage

This smoothie is best served immediately because the ice melts and the coconut milk can separate during storage. If it waits briefly, stir before drinking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Use Pumpkin Instead Of Butternut Squash?

This card preserves the measured butternut-squash formula. Use cooked butternut puree for the same body and flavor.

Can I Replace The Clementine?

Yes. The source gives a measured alternate of two to three orange sections.

Is The Egg Yolk Cooked?

No. The source formula uses one raw egg yolk, which is blended directly with the remaining ingredients.
