Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make a smoothie from pumpkin with apricot and yogurt? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Pumpkin can be used either frozen or fresh. I have a frozen one. Instead of apricots, you can use any fruit you like. I have fruit drinking yogurt. For the base of a pumpkin smoothie, you can use kefir, milk, and sometimes add water if the consistency of the drink is too thick.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the apricots well under running water and pat dry with a paper towel or napkin. The number of apricots can be adjusted to your taste.

Step 3

Step 3
I have frozen pumpkin cut into cubes. If you have it whole, then you need to peel it and cut it into pieces and cook it in a pan or use the microwave. I prefer the second option — literally 3-4 minutes at maximum power, and the pumpkin becomes soft and ready to eat.

Step 4

Step 4
All ingredients can be combined by simply cutting them into small pieces and diluting with yogurt. This option is also quite acceptable for lovers of textured food, in this case drinks. But still, we are accustomed to smoothies in the form of a homogeneous drink consistency. So take a blender and place the softened pumpkin in its glass.

Step 5

Step 5
Remove the seeds from the prepared apricots and also place them in the blender bowl with the pumpkin.

Step 6

Step 6
Add drinking yogurt.

Step 7

Step 7
If you are using unsweetened yogurt, add a little sugar if desired. I had strawberry yogurt and there was no need to sweeten it additionally.

Step 8

Step 8
Thatʼs all — all that remains is to beat the ingredients in a glass until smooth. I punched a little at low speed, and then increased it and punched a little more until foam appeared.

Thatʼs all, a great delicious pumpkin smoothie is ready! I served it for an afternoon snack, my husband and I really liked it, try it! Bon appetit!
