Ingredients

Apple peanut ،er smoothie ingredients
  • Apple: Slightly sweet, slightly ،, I like to use gala, ،neycrisp, or Fuji apples. If you’re a fan of more ، flavors, you could use a granny smith.
  • Banana: Naturally sweet and creamy in texture, bananas make it so you don’t have to add any sweeteners. I freeze my ripe bananas to use in smoothies so I can use less ice!
  • Yogurt: I usually use plain Greek yogurt for added protein, but if you want to keep it vegan or dairy-free, simply swap out for full ، coconut milk or almond milk.
  • Peanut ،er: Low carb, full of healthy ،s and oh-so-tasty, peanut ،er is one of my favorite flavors.
  • Flax seed meal: Basically flavorless, but a fantastic source of omega 3 ،ty acids and fiber.
  • Vanilla: A simple flavor enhancer.
  • Cinnamon: Adds a bit of warmth along with antioxidants.

Easy Subs،utions

  • Make it sweeter. If you like your smoothies on the sweeter side, don’t reach for sugar quite yet. Try sweetening with maple syrup or ،ney.
  • Boost the protein. While peanut ،er and Greek yogurt are great sources of protein, really turn it into a protein shake by adding some protein powder.
