Step-by-step pumpkin oatmeal smoothie recipe:
1. First of all, prepare dried apricots. Since it is usually tough, fill it with hot water and let it sit for 5-7 minutes.
2. Peel the pumpkin, remove the seeds and scoop out the fibers. Wash the vegetable, pat dry with a paper towel and cut into small pieces. Although it is not necessary to chop it finely. If you have a powerful blender, you can cut it into medium slices.
3. Take the blender bowl and add the prepared pumpkin to it.
4. Remove the dried apricots from the water and wipe with a paper towel. Also cut it into chunks and place in a food processor.
5. Next, pour the oatmeal into the blender bowl. For this recipe, take them instant. Flakes that need to be boiled will not work. Pour pumpkin seeds there. You can pre-fry them lightly in a clean, dry skillet.
6. Pour milk over the food. If you want a lower-calorie dessert, you can use low-fat kefir, yogurt, or just drinking water.
7. Place the blender bowl on the appliance or take a hand blender and beat the food well until smooth. The drink will turn out to be quite thick, in consistency close to sour cream.
8. Pour dessert into glasses and serve. They use it immediately after preparation; it is not customary to cook smoothies for future use. If the drink stands a little, then the oatmeal will swell and the consistency of the dessert will become even thicker. Although this is already to your taste.
