In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, kefir, almond milk and almond butter.
In another bowl, whisk vanilla protein powder(s), unflavored protein powder, flour, peanut butter powder, zero calorie brown sugar replacement, pumpkin pie spice and baking soda.
Add dry mix to wet, and gently stir until just mixed.
