Apple Pie Smoothie Recipe
This creamy blend is packed with fiber and warm spices to keep you energized.
Ingredients
-
1 medium apple: Cored and chopped (keep the skin on for extra fiber).
-
1/4 cup rolled oats: Provides that hearty, cookie-like texture.
-
1 cup milk of choice: (Dairy, almond, or oat milk all work beautifully).
-
1/4 cup Greek yogurt: Adds creaminess and a protein boost.
-
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon: Plus a cinnamon stick for garnish.
-
1 tbsp walnut pieces: For healthy fats and a nutty depth.
-
1 tsp maple syrup or honey: (Optional, depending on the sweetness of your apple).
-
A handful of ice cubes: To make it chilled and frothy.
Instructions
-
Prep the Apple: Wash the apple thoroughly. Chop it into small chunks, discarding the core and seeds.
-
Combine: Place the chopped apple, rolled oats, walnuts, and cinnamon into your blender.
-
Add Liquids: Pour in your choice of milk and the Greek yogurt. If you prefer a sweeter drink, add your maple syrup or honey now.
-
Blend: Start the blender on a low speed to break up the oats and nuts, then increase to high. Blend for about 45–60 seconds until completely smooth and frothy.
-
Adjust: If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more milk. If you want it colder, toss in the ice and pulse again.
-
Serve: Pour into a mason jar (just like the photo!). Garnish with a cinnamon stick and a sprinkle of extra oats or crushed walnuts.
Enjoy your refreshing, wholesome treat!
