We’re big smoothie fans here at the Ramparts. It’s been awhile since I shared a recipe, so yesterday I put on my thinking cap and came up with the Apple Pie Green Smoothie. It’s a green smoothie because it has spinach in it. So, it’s a good way to squeeze a few more veggies into your day (and honest, you totally can’t taste the spinach). I usually don’t put dairy in my smoothies; but since I wanted this Apple Pie Smoothie to be a bit richer, I added it in. And we had two large containers of Greek yogurt that we have to use up soon.
Here we go!
Apple Pie Green Smoothie
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 large apple, cut into chunks
1 ripe banana, frozen and cut into chunks
1 c. spinach
1/2 c. cold water
1/2 c. vanilla flavored Greek yogurt
1 tbsp. graham cracker crumbs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
Directions:
1. Combine first four ingredients in blender. Blend until smooth.
2. Add remaining ingredients. Blend again until smooth.
3. Enjoy!
Substitutions:
You could easily make this a vegan smoothie! Just leave out the 1/2 cup cold water, and replace the yogurt with a 1/2 cup of almond milk.
I used a Fuji apple, but you could use any variety (a Honeycrisp would be AMAZING). I like to use frozen banana, because it gives the smoothie an icy, milkshake-like texture…but you could use a fresh banana. Do whatever floats your boat, basically.
If you try it, let me know how much you liked it in the comments! If you didn’t like it…keep it to yourself. Image may be NSFW.
