Do you ever feel like while the days can seem to go slow, the weeks, months, and years just fly by?  It can seem like an eternity from the end of dinner to the kids’ bedtime, but then I blink my eye and realize my baby girl is going to be five (!) in a few weeks.  Before I know it she’ll need enough fingers from two hands to show her age.  Just stop.

That’s kind of how I felt when I saw the acronym PSL all over social media last week.  I think it took me a few days to figure out what everyone was talking about:  Starbuck’s famous Pumpkin Spice Latte.  You see, I’m still a little stuck in summer and couldn’t figure out how it could possibly be time for pumpkin-flavored things.

Didn’t I just get my shorts out in anticipation of the warm weather?  Wait, it’s practically fall already?!

Well, even though the calendar says there are just a few short weeks left of precious summer, we’ve been having gorgeous 80 degree weather in my neck of the woods.  I can’t seem to get in the mood for a hot latte quite yet.  But seeing PSL all over the place did get me craving my beloved pumpkin.

What do you get when you cross 80+ degree weather with a craving for pumpkin?  Pumpkin spice ice cream, of course!  I blended up some frozen banana-style ice cream with a pumpkin twist and it hit the spot.  A perfect way to dive into pumpkin flavor before the cool weather hits.  Why not?

I topped mine with some vegan coconut whipped cream.  Delicious!

If it’s already chilly where you live, feel free to skip the ice cream and go right to the Pumpkin Spice White Hot Chocolate!

    I made this last night for my Hubby and me, but as more of a milk shake, it was delicious. I added a little avocado and I think that added some creaminess. I didn’t think of using maple syrup, though – genius! Thank you for all your beautiful recipes and pictures.

    Not gonna lie…I’m kind of sick of traditional banana soft serve, but this pumpkin version sounds absolutely perfect! Love that spice profile, too. Pinned!

    Yum! I love making frozen banana soft serve in my vitamix. This sounds perfect! It it chilly and rainy here in Germany, so I am ready to break out the cans of pumpkin from my pantry and embrace Fall…even if it’s with ice cream!
