Fro-yo girl here. Happy National Pumpkin Month! It’s time for my annual pumpkin yogurt rankings. I bought these cups of pumpkin yogurt at Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, and Sprouts. I tried these five yogurts side by side. They're all made with pumpkin puree.
The contenders:
- Ellenos Pumpkin Pie whole milk Greek yogurt with pie toppings in a separate compartment
- Icelandic Provisions Pumpkin Spice skyr
- Noosa Pumpkin yoghurt whole milk Australian-style yogurt
- Siggi’s Pumpkin & Spice lowfat skyr
- Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Greek nonfat yogurt
And the rankings are (in order of preference):
- Ellenos Pumpkin Pie: Ellenos wins every year, because the yogurt tastes the most like pumpkin pie. It has the best pumpkin puree. The yogurt is velvety and tangy. The buttery crumbs put this yogurt over the top. It’s made with cream and eggs. It tastes decadent.
- Icelandic Provisions Pumpkin Spice: this blended skyr was pleasantly spiced, sweet but not too sweet, and tangy. The warmth from maple syrup was very nice and they even added some butter. It’s a little thinner than Siggi’s and a little sweeter.
- Siggi’s Pumpkin & Spice: I liked it because it wasn’t too sweet and had some sourness, but there isn’t much pumpkin or spice flavor. Siggi’s is made with skim milk and cream.
- Noosa Pumpkin: this Australian-style yogurt is not blended and it tastes like cream cheese and honey. It is very sweet but does have tang. It didn’t have much pumpkin or spice flavor.
- Trader Joe’s Pumpkin: the blended yogurt with smooth and sweet without much tang, it also lacks in pumpkin and spice flavors
I saw Chobani Pumpkin Spice Greek yogurt but only in packs of four. I did not see Culina or La Fermiere’s pumpkin yogurt for sale this year.
You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
