This Pumpkin Spice Latte Shake…
…is everything that’s nice about Fall in cool, thick, creamy, slimming shake.
Trim Healthy Mama friendly (you can keep it a Fuel Pull or turn it into an S by topping with xylitol or stevia-sweetened whipped cream!), and full of protein (without the use of protein powder), this Pumpkin Spice Latte Shake is a filling meal in itself for those end-of-Summer days that are still hot enough for shakes, and colorful enough to be craving all things pumpkin.
Be sure to make the Pumpkin Spice mix first; it will give you enough flavoring to have one of these shakes a day for a whole week if you’re one of those pumpkin-loving people.

Pumpkin Spice Latte Shake | THM: FP or S
This Pumpkin Spice Latte Shake is everything that's nice about Fall in a cool, thick, creamy, slimming, Trim Healthy Mama compatible shake that can be a Fuel Pull or an S - your choice!
Ingredients
PUMPKIN SPICE MIX:
- 4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
SHAKE:
- 4 large ice cubes
- 2/3 cup cold coffee
- 2/3 cup unsweetened cashew milk
- 1/3 cup cottage cheese (fat-free or 1% for FP; 2% or higher fat for S)
- 4 Tbsp canned pumpkin
- 3 Tbsp xylitol
- 1 Tbsp collagen
- 1 Tbsp heavy cream (optional: use if you'd like a decadent S)
- 1 scant tsp Pumpkin Spice mix
- 1 tsp xanthan gum
- 1/2 tsp caramel extract
- 1/4 tsp stevia extract
Instructions
- Add Pumpkin Spice mix ingredients to a small container, stir to combine, and set aside.
- Add shake ingredients to blender and blend for several minutes until smooth, thick, and creamy. Pour into a mason jar or large glass and enjoy immediately!
- Optional: Top with naturally sweetened whipped cream to kick it into S territory and take it up a notch!
Notes
Keep this shake a Fuel Pull by using cottage cheese that contains 1% fat or less. It's still incredibly delicious without the cream!
For a richer, S shake, feel free to use full-fat cottage cheese, heavy cream, and a whipped cream topping.
Oh my goodness. I made this today and it is AMAZING! This will definitely get made on a regular basis. I used almond milk instead of cashew and it was still pretty awesome.
I’m so glad you liked it! Thanks for letting me know. ????
When are you supposed to add the spices and how much? Looks good!
It looks and sounds good, but please clarify your recipe instructions. You do not state how much of the spice mix to use in the shake. I think this would work well with tea, also.
The directions state using 1 scant tsp of the Pumpkin Spice Mix. (Fourth line from the bottom of the ingredient list 🙂 ) Hope that helps!
This is soooo good! You could’ve told me it was from Starbucks and I would have never guessed otherwise! Thank you for this lovely recipe!
That’s great to hear! Thanks for letting me know.
I can’t wait to make this tomorrow! Another pumpkin lover here! Love having the option of S or FP. Thanks so much Jacinda!
Got your spice mix made up! Ready to go!
Looking forward to trying this recipe! When you say stevia extract, are you meaning the stevia powder?
Hi Diane, I mean the liquid stevia extract. 🙂
If I just wanted to use gentle sweet how much do you think I should use?
I used 3 tbsp gentle sweet and it was perfect!
