Ingredients
2 Honeycrisp apples, diced and frozen
1 cup Greek yogurt, plain or vanilla
2/3 cup almond milk, unsweetened
1/3 cup rolled oats
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Place ingredients into a high-speed blender in the order listed.
Add 4 to 5 ice cubes if you did not freeze your apples beforehand.
Secure the blender lid tightly.
Blend on high speed until completely smooth with no remaining fruit chunks.
Check consistency and add small splashes of extra almond milk if the mixture is too thick.
Notes
For the best texture, ensure your apple pieces are fully frozen before blending. If you prefer a warmer flavor profile, you can increase the amount of cinnamon slightly. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, though it is best enjoyed immediately after preparation.
