Apple Smoothie Recipe
Description
The Apple Smoothie Recipe combines fresh apples peeled and deseeded with coconut milk to achieve a smooth texture ideal for a light, fruity beverage. The optional cinnamon adds a warming spice note complementing the apple’s natural sweetness. The blending process produces a fine, smooth drink with a slightly creamy consistency when coconut milk is used. Adjusting the liquid by adding extra coconut milk or water allows customization of thickness to preference.
This smoothie works well as a breakfast drink or snack, delivering fruit flavor in a convenient form. It is best served immediately to retain a bright color and fresh taste, as the smoothie may darken due to oxidation upon standing.
Various plant-based milks such as cashew, oat, almond, or soy may be substituted for coconut milk. Other optional flavorings include vanilla extract, nutmeg, or cardamom, and protein powder can be added for increased nutrition. Sweeteners may be omitted depending on apple sweetness or personal taste preferences.
Ingredients
- 2 apple large, preferably organic
- ½ cup coconut milk - thin or medium consistency or lite coconut milk
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon - optional
Instructions
- Rinse the apples and then peel them. Quarter them and remove the seeds.
- Take the chopped apples in a blender jar.
- Add the ground cinnamon powder and coconut milk.
- Blend till smooth and fine. If you prefer a slightly thinner consistency, add some more coconut milk or a bit of water.
- Pour straight away in glasses and serve Apple Smoothie immediately. Do not keep for a long time as then the smoothie turns dark due to oxidation.
Notes
- Use sweet-tasting apples for a naturally flavorful smoothie without added sugar.
- Plant-based milks like cashew, oat, almond, or GMO-free soy milk can replace coconut milk.
- Flavorings such as vanilla extract, nutmeg, or green cardamom powder may be added or omitted according to preference.
- For added nutrition, stir in protein powder while blending.
- Sweeteners are optional, based on taste or apple sweetness.
- Serve immediately as the smoothie darkens upon standing due to oxidation.
