Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups apple cider or apple juice
  • 1 cup yogurt vanilla, plain, or apple cinnamon; use regular, vegan, soy, coconut milk, or your favorite yogurt
  • ¼ cup milk or non-dairy nut milk optional (omit for a thicker smoothie)
  • 1 medium ripe banana previously frozen is ideal but not required
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch nutmeg and/or cardamom optional
  • sugar or sweetener agave, stevia, maple syrup, etc. optional and to taste
  • 2 cups ice optional and as necessary

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all ingredients, except ice, in a large blender or Vita-Mix and blend until smooth and creamy, taking care any sweetener used has dissolved and is well incorporated. If desired, pour over ice or blend ice into the smoothie noting that this will water it down a bit; if time permits refrigerating or freezing smoothie to chill is recommending.
  2. Tips: Pour excess portion(s) into glasses and freeze ahead for later (30 seconds in the microwave is what I do to thaw in a hurry); pour excess into bowls and freeze for apple pie frozen yogurt; or pour into Popsicle molds, paper cups, or ice cube trays and freeze for homemade frozen treats.
  3. Optional: Add 1 to 2 ounces of Rum, Vodka, Marshmallow Vodka, Apple Vodka, Apple Schnapps, Gran Marnier or similar, per smoothie portion, or to taste. Or add 1 to 2 scoops of vanilla or plain protein powder. Use caramel sauce in the mixture or drizzled over the top before drinking.
