I don’t have a big sweet tooth but boy there is something about apple pie in the Fall that I just cannot resist. And while, yes, I have had cold apple pie for breakfast, I thought maybe there was a way to get the same flavors in a slightly healthier way. Enter this Apple Pie Smoothie.

I was lucky enough to have a second appearance on WTNH’s CT Style last Friday and this recipe was a big hit. No wonder, because it really does taste like apple pie in a glass.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 ripe banana, chopped
  • 2 apples, cored and chopped

  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)

  1. Place all the ingredients into a blender.
  2. Put on the lid and process until smooth, about 30-60 seconds.
