Apples take center stage in fall baking, but we often forget, they are delicious in other types of recipes, too! These apple pie smoothies highlight the sweet-tart flavor of raw apples, and are a great way to use up any leftover apples from that pie you baked. We also like how this recipe is naturally plant-based and allergy-friendly, so almost everyone can enjoy it.
We love almond milk or oat milk for the milk beverage in these sweet smoothies. The flavor of each complements both the apples and spices. The smoothie consistency is cool and lightly creamy. You can make it richer with lite canned coconut milk in place of the milk beverage, if preferred. If using coconut milk, I would add 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract to tie the flavors together.
