Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Frozen Riced Cauliflower (can be swapped with grated zucchini)
  • 1/2 cup Canned Pumpkin Purée (use for lower-carb option)
  • 1 cup Milk of Choice (cashew milk recommended, but any nut or dairy milk works)
  • 1 pinch Pink Salt (regular salt can be used)
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder (The Peachie Spoon)
  • 1 scoop Collagen (optional)
  • 1 tbsp Ground Flaxseed or Psyllium Husk Powder

Toppings

  • 1-2 tbsp Nut Butter (almond, peanut, or sun butter)
  • 1/2 tbsp Pumpkin Seeds
  • 1 tbsp Granola (optional for added crunch)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: In a glass bowl, combine milk of choice, frozen riced cauliflower, canned pumpkin purée, pink salt, and pumpkin pie spice. This mixture forms the flavorful and nutritious base of the bowl.
  2. Cook the Mixture: Microwave the bowl for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender, ensuring the flavors meld together and the texture becomes creamy.
  3. Add Protein and Fiber: Remove from the microwave and stir in the vanilla protein powder and ground flaxseed or psyllium husk powder. Adjust the consistency by adding a bit more milk if needed to achieve a delightful creaminess.
  4. Top and Serve: Garnish with your choice of nut butter, sprinkle pumpkin seeds, and add granola if desired for an extra crunch. Serve warm for a comforting breakfast bowl.

Notes

  • Frozen riced cauliflower can be substituted with grated zucchini for a different flavor and texture.
  • You can use any type of milk—nut-based or dairy—depending on dietary preferences.
  • Collagen powder is optional but adds extra protein and skin-supporting benefits.
  • Adjust sweetness by choosing flavored protein powder or adding a sweetener of your choice.
  • If you prefer a thicker or thinner consistency, adjust the amount of milk accordingly.
  • Granola topping adds crunch but is optional for those watching carb intake.
