Apple & Peanut Butter Power Smoothie

Apple & Peanut Butter Power Smoothie

This smoothie is creamy, naturally sweet, and packed with protein and fiber.

Ingredients

• 1 medium apple: Cored and sliced (keep the skin on for extra fiber!).

• 1 frozen banana: Provides that thick, creamy texture seen in the glass.

• 1 tablespoon peanut butter: Smooth or crunchy works great.

• 1 cup milk of choice: Dairy, almond, or oat milk all fit perfectly.

• 1 teaspoon honey: To match the honey wand in your photo.

• A pinch of cinnamon: Optional, but brings out the apple flavor.

• Ice: A small handful if your fruit isn’t frozen.

Instructions

1. Prep the Fruit: Wash the apple thoroughly. Remove the core and chop it into small chunks. Peel your banana (if using a fresh one).

2. Combine: Add the apple, banana, milk, peanut butter, and honey into a high-speed blender.

3. Blend: Start on a low setting and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 45–60 seconds until completely smooth.

4. Check Consistency: If it’s too thick, add a splash more milk. If you want it frostier, add a few ice cubes and blend again.

5. Garnish: Pour into a glass. To match your image, top with a few small pieces of chopped banana and a tiny drizzle of honey or peanut butter.

Quick Tips for the Best Result

• The Apple: Use a sweeter variety like Gala or Fuji to complement the peanut butter.

• Texture: If you don’t have a high-powered blender, grate the apple first to ensure there are no chunky bits of skin left behind.

• Peanut Allergy? You can easily swap the peanut butter for almond butter or sunflower seed butter.
