Apple Pie Protein Smoothie
 
Prep time
Total time
 
A healthy, tasty creation to curve a sweet craving that taste's just like Mom's homemade apple pie!
Serves: 1 smoothie
Ingredients
  • 1 cup almond milk, vanilla or original [I use unsweetened]
  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
  • ½ apple finely diced* [I prefer Fuji or Empire but I’ve also used Granny Smith for some extra tartness]
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground clove
  • ½ scoop vanilla protein powder [I use about 40 grams]
  • 6-8 ice cubes
Instructions
  1. Directions:
  2. Place everything in the blender beginning with the top of the ingredient list and working you way down.
  3. Add additional ice cubes as needed to acquire your desired thickness.
  4. Pour into a glass, sprinkle with cinnamon & enjoy!
Notes
Sometimes, I only add half of the apple to the smoothie and choose to stir in the rest to the smoothie after blending. Obviously, you can’t drink the smoothie but I enjoy eating it with a spoon, kind of like a soup smoothie!
