The Apple Protein Smoothie is one of those Healthy Recipes that enrich your day without any guilt. Made with fresh apples and flavored with cinnamon, this is a perfect Autumn Smoothie full of aromas that resembles the taste of a real apple pie.

Rich and delicious, it’s hard to believe that this Apple and Cinnamon Smoothie is absolutely healthy and sweetened only with a small amount of maple syrup. Smoothies are an excellent way to incorporate more fruit and lean protein into your diet. In this Apple Smoothie recipe, we’ve decided to combine the fiber and texture of oats with the tangy and rich flavor of Greek yogurt, which will make this Protein Smoothie truly creamy and velvety. It’s a treat even for the little ones!

Alternatives

You can replace Greek yogurt with a plant-based alternative, making your Protein Apple Smoothie completely vegan. Maple syrup can be substituted with an equal amount of agave syrup or honey, and to enhance its spicy flavor, you can optionally add nutmeg or half a teaspoon of ground ginger.

Tips

If you don’t have fresh apples at home, you can make the Protein Apple Smoothie using 3/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce. If you prefer a thicker smoothie, you can omit the almond milk.

Storage

The Protein Apple Smoothie can be consumed immediately or prepared the night before and stored in the refrigerator until the next morning. Before drinking, shake it for a few moments to restore the mixture’s homogeneity.
