Notes
- For a dairy-free option, substitute yogurt or milk with almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk.
- Adjust cinnamon and sweetener amounts based on your taste preferences.
- Use a tart apple variety like Granny Smith for a tangier smoothie, or go sweeter with Fuji or Gala apples.
- Adding a tablespoon of flaxseed or chia seeds can boost the fiber and omega-3 content.
- If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk or water to reach desired consistency.
