TIPS
Here are some helpful tips for you when making this apple pie smoothie.
- Use A Sweet Apple: Varieties like Honeycrisp, Fuji or Gala provide natural sweetness without needing extra honey.
- Chill The Almond Milk: Using cold almond milk enhances the refreshing quality of the smoothie.
- Blend For Longer: A longer blend time ensures a smooth, creamy consistency, especially with oats.
- Sweeten To Taste: Adjust the honey amount based on preference or replace it with maple syrup for a deeper flavour.
- Make It Extra Thick: Reduce the almond milk for a spoonable smoothie bowl topped with nuts and fruit.
- Enhance The Apple Pie Flavour: Add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger for an authentic spiced touch.
VARIATIONS
- Higher Protein: Blend in a scoop of vanilla or cinnamon protein powder for a protein boost.
- Nutty Twist: Add a teaspoon of almond butter or peanut butter for a richer taste.
- Dairy-Free Option: Use oat milk or coconut milk instead of almond milk for a different flavour.
- Caramel Drizzle: Swirl in a small amount of caramel sauce for a dessert-like indulgence.
- Berry Blend: Add a handful of cranberries or raisins for a tangy contrast.
- Spiced Version: Mix in a pinch of cloves or cardamom for extra warmth.
- Extra Crunch: Top with toasted pecans or walnuts for a pie-inspired garnish.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Refrigeration: Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours in an airtight container. Stir before drinking.
