    What do you mean by not pie filling? The stuff I get is pie filling in a can but it's one ingredient: pumpkin. Do you mean not spiced?

    I make this all the time. I use a banana as well. I don't use maple syrup or any kind of sugar. I will add in some chocolate protein powder from time to time as well.

    You can put pumpkin in pretty much any protein shake/smoothie. the taste covers pretty easily. I use it almost every day, year round!

    Sounds great! Thanks! I love the banana idea in place of maple syrup. I would also add some coconut oil! :)
