This Vegan Apple Smoothie has a few simple and unusual ingredients. In less than 10 minutes, you’ll have an apple smoothie recipe healthy style that will keep you going for hours.
Blender smoothies are one of the easiest ways to get a delicious and healthy meal or snack any time of the day. This one can even be a power smoothie before or after your workout.
There’s a little bit of maple syrup too. You could leave it out, but I love a lightly sweetened smoothie, especially if the smoothie apple is tart like a Granny Smith.
There are a lot of apples to choose from in the stores, so just use the one you like and/or have on hand.
If you have some other smoothie recipes, breakfast is a great way to use them. People are usually a bit tired in the morning and need something quick to get them going.
A fruit or green smoothie is the answer. It will perk you up!
Ingredients
- Fresh Apples- Green apples are my favorite, but any apple variety will give this smoothie its classic apple flavor.
- Rolled Oats- Add heft and protein to this apple smoothie recipe, healthy style.
- Ground Cinnamon- Used for the spice that will remind you of apple pie.
- Peanut Butter- Creates a deliciously creamy yet nutty flavor. While peanut butter and apples go amazing together, you could also use almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter.
- Plant-Based Milk- Almond milk, coconut milk, When mixed with these other healthy ingredients, it creates a fantastic creamy beverage.
- Maple Syrup- My sweetener of choice, and this recipe doesn’t need much.
How To Make A Vegan Apple Smoothie
- You don’t need to peel the apple. That option is completely up to you. The texture will be different if you don’t peel it, but you will lose some nutrients and vitamins if you do.
- Make sure to core it and remove all of the seeds. Kids may not like the consistency of the apple skins, so peel them if you have picky eaters.
- This is so easy, and all you have to do is add in the measured ingredients along with the cored and cup up apples to a blender.
So there you have it. A beautiful and tasty peanut butter apple smoothie to fill you up and get you going.
Popular Substitutions And Additions
- Add frozen fruit to change up the flavors. Try using a frozen banana, berries, or pineapple for a tropical twist.
- Use vegan yogurt instead of dairy-free milk for an extra thick and creamy smoothie.
- Substitute sunflower seed butter or protein powder to make this recipe nut free.
- Add ground nutmeg or apple pie spice to turn this treat into a delicious vegan apple pie smoothie.
