Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- For the smoothie base:
- 1 medium apple (cored and chopped)
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- For flavor & texture:
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4–5 ice cubes
- Optional toppings:
- Extra apple slices
- Sprinkle of cinnamon
- Crushed walnuts
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- 1. Add oats to blender and pulse briefly to create a coarse oat flour.
- 2. Combine all smoothie base ingredients (apple, almond milk, yogurt, honey) in the blender.
- 3. Add cinnamon, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.
- 4. Blend on high speed for 45-60 seconds until completely smooth.
- 5. Pour into a tall glass and add optional toppings if desired.
- 6. Serve immediately for best texture.
Notes
For a vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup and use plant-based yogurt. Soaking oats for 10 minutes beforehand creates an extra creamy texture. Leftovers thicken significantly – thin with extra milk if needed.
