What You Need for an Apple Smoothie Bowl

Frozen Banana- the base of this smoothie is made with frozen bananas.

Applesauce- We love using applesauce in smoothie recipes rather than apples because the smoothie turns out so smooth rather than grainy. Fresh apples are delicious but give smoothies a grainy taste.

Try making our Instant Pot Apple Sauce or just buy your favorite no sugar added store-bought apple sauce!

Oats- The oats in the apple pie smoothie bowl add a hint of creaminess and earthiness. It helps to make sure that your smoothie bowl isn’t too sweet.

Cinnamon- Not only does cinnamon taste delicious, but it also has antioxidant properties and is said to be a great anti-inflammatory aid.

GREENS- The greens in this smoothie bowl are optional, but HIGHLY recommended! Honestly, you can’t even taste them. The benefits definitely out way not adding them in. You get a full serving of greens that will keep you fueled for wherever the day takes you!

Variations

• Banana: If you don’t love bananas, we have an excellent variation for you. Simply freeze the applesauce in an ice cube tray and use that in place of the banana!
• Dairy-free: Feel free to make this dairy-free and use a dairy-free yogurt or no yogurt at all.
• Spices: swap the cinnamon for our homemade chai spice or apple pie spice.
• Greens: try spinach or kale.

Apple Smoothie Bowl Topping Ideas

What is a smoothie bowl without your favorite toppings? We love adding extra nutrients and crunch to our smoothie bowls. Here are our favorite topping options:

• Whole Flax Seeds
• Apple Cinnamon Granola
• Oats
• Sliced Almonds
• Chopped Pecans
• Blueberries
• Strawberries

• Nut Butter
