Equipment

  • High-power blender

Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce frozen into cubes
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder I use whey
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • ⅔ cup water

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to the bucket of a high powered blender. Blend for 30-60 seconds until smooth.
  • Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately!

Notes

  • This smoothie will have the coldest, creamiest texture if you freeze the applesauce into cubes overnight. If you don't though, that's okay. Throw in a few ice cubes to chill the smoothie.
  • Instead of applesauce, try 1 peeled and cored apple.
  • My favorite high powered blenders are the ZWILLING ENFINIGY power blender, and the Vitamix E310.
  • Additional nutrition: Add a handful of spinach, collagen powder, chia seeds, or any other nutritional supplements to bulk up this smoothie.
