This Pumpkin Pie Mikshake is the perfect way to use up leftover pumpkin pie.  If you don’t have leftover pie, make or buy a pie just so you can make Pumpkin Pie Shakes!

Some other favorite ice cream treats try this Cupcake Milkshakes, a favorite copycat Peppermint Chocolate Chip Milkshake and a slice of Ice Cream Pie.

Pie Shake

The first time I saw a pumpkin pie milkshake on a menu, I thought, YUCK!   I love my milkshakes, but I don’t like pumpkin pie.  And the thought of a piece of pie in a milkshake was just a little too weird for me. Well,  I have quickly changed my tune!!

I first saw the idea of a pie shake on the menu at a restaurant in Provo, Utah.  They had all different flavors and combos.  The first one I ever tried was an Oreo Mint Pie Shake and it was delish.  I discovered that the idea of combining a piece of pie and a milkshake was pretty much brilliant. They put the whole piece of pie, crust and all, into the blender with ice cream.

So maybe the idea of a Pumpkin Pie Shake wasn’t so strange after all?!

How to make a Pumpkin Pie MilkShake

I decided I didn’t want to wait until we had leftover Thanksgiving pumpkin pie to give it a try so I bought a frozen pumpkin pie! 

• Bake the pie according to directions on box or use leftover pie.
• Cut baked pie into slices and freeze individual slices.
• Chop up the frozen slice of pie.
• Place pie in blender along with ice cream, milk and blend.

Guess what?  It is awesome!!  Remember,  I don’t even like pumpkin pie but a pumpkin pie shake  is amazing!  For me, it is the texture of pumpkin pie I don’t like but I like the flavor so a pumpkin pie milkshake is perfect.

You can also use pumpkin pie made from scratch.  This would be a fun way to enjoy your leftover Thanksgiving pie.   But the quick and easy store bought pie is pretty delicious too!

Can I Use Other Kinds of Pie?

So when you have some leftover pumpkin pie – try something new!  Pop it in the freezer and then make yourself a Pumpkin Pie Shake – you won’t regret it!!  The possibilities are endless – Banana Cream Pie Shakes, Chocolate Cream Pie Shakes, and Coconut Cream Pie Shakes just to name a few!  If you have other pies leftover from Thanksgiving, give them a try too!

Just top the milkshake with some whipped cream, caramel sauce and a little piece of pumpkin pie!

Then grab a spoon and dig in!
